Hey, one of my main beam bulbs went out and i purchased some nice xenon super beam bulbs to replace them. So only one of my main beams work and i tried replacing them today with these new xenon bulbs and the xenon bulb didnt work, so i tried it the other way round and it didnt work. I tried the other one and that doesnt work. I pulled out the working bulb and put in the xenon bulb and that didnt work in their either.

So i assumed the new bulbs were fked and i needed a replacement however, i put the working bulb back in and now that doesnt work.

I checked all my fuses now no main beam works.

Im really confused.

Perhaps a fuse has gone, if not Halfords will fit bulbs for those who can't (at a price).

fk that, they will charge me £30 to fit it. I checked all the fuses

My side lights and headlights work fine by the way.

Take a look at the connector to see if there's any corrosion on it. Stick a meter on it to check it's getting voltage. :-)

Better with a test lamp. Check you have power at the relevant fuse then trace back.
