V70 Y REG Dipped Beam

Post by daveyr »

The dipped beam on my V70 does not work at all. I have no error messages on the instrument pannel. I have side lights and full beam still available whether daylight running is on or off. Both dipped beam bulbs are ok. Fuses appear ok. Relays - not too sure about. I can only think that the switch itself has failed. Is this a common fault?

I have now changed the light switch unit but this does not change the fault. Does anyone know what relays are involved,where they are located & how to test them or what should be my next step - I have just been reading about shunts & resistors does this make any sense to anyone?
