Low, But No High

AC · 08-03-2009, 07:40 PM

Hey Guys,

Got a small problem with my AU.

Low beams work fine.
But High's are a no go, weather you pull back to flash or flick forward for highs on
Started off intermittent, would loose both for a sec flicking up to highs

I replaced the 30A breaker in the under bonnet fuse box, No difference.
The light stick near the steering wheel appears fine.

Does anyone know of another place where it may fault ?

I know electrics can be a lottery, Help please im stuck

Have you tried replacing the bulbs?

Yep, All the obvious is done.

As much as im trying to avoid it, an auto elec is nearing the next stop.

Sounds like a relay problem, as you say it started intermittant.

Yeah, was occasional.

Started dipping out both when flicking up to high, both would go out for half a sec or so
Now theres just no high beam at all
And now the lows go out as well when you flick on the highs.
Then they come back when you flick back to low.

Problem solved, The Relay, It lives right nextdoor to the breaker.

All good again
