Bad earth

[mgbond]

When I put head lights on (not side lights) the front drivers indicator and side repeater come on but not brightly. This makes the the drivers side headlight not fully bright and if I indicate right the indicators flash at double speed. I took indicator bulb out but it still does it.

Is it a short inside the car or could it just be the high intensity main bulb has failed. It was all fine last week when driving around n the wet but it seems something has got in somewhere. Any ideas where to check?

see if you can find the earth wire and link a piece of wire direct to the chasis

check the connectors that attach the light assembly to the front clam - a squirt of wd40 may be all that is needed

Could the main bulb have gone faulty and causing this. Can't be earth as it doesn't do it when side lights are on. Just when main lights and full beam?

Sorted, just needed to clean up the contact that attach to the 3 prongs on the main headlight.
