Daft as it sounds, both bulbs could have failed , have you side lights, have you checked the fuses?Altox GSM FBH controller thread

Thanks for the reply beanie, all sorted. I know you are all gonna have ago at me, took it to halfrauds a few weeks ago to have a new bulb fitted (freezing cold night and had the flu) got them to fit 2 new,asked if they wanted the grill off to remove the headlight units but said they could do it without .
Give the lad his due he did the change without taking the units out .
Just taken the units out and found that the plugs hadn't been fitted on correctly and have melted.

Idiots they are ,After what the halfrauds done to my mates car I wouldn't trust them to fit an air freshener.My mate bought wiper blades and stupidly asked if they could fit them Some young lad took the blade off and let the arm go and it smashed the windscreen

Been in today, gave me all the cost back, 4 new bulbs and new plugs, supervisors comment was if I need anything else doing by them it's best to go between 0900 and 1600 because the experienced fitters are in then !
