968 Headlights pulsating...HELP !!!

[retroracing]

Ok, so yet another problem with my 968!!!!
Had the immobiliser removed today so the car actually starts and moves again now!
and spent the afternoon reassembling the door so I now have working central locking.

Booked her in for the MOT tomorrow and just going throught the 'pre flight checks' and my lights seem to have gone mental!

The motors seem to be whiring for about 10 seconds after they pop up, then when I flick to main beam, they strobe on and off like its at a 90's disco!

I can hear the big double socket relay clicking away like mad, so is that this is knackered, hope not as it looks expensive!!!!

Please help as really need the car to get its mot tomorrow so I can get it up for sale, cheers!!!!

did the lights work ok after the immob was removed and before you did the door?

I'm not sure as never used it at night, so never really used the lights. I'm hoping the guy didnt mess them up doing the immob. He was a proper auto electrician, so seems unlikely. And the door was only a clip, no wiring.

unclip the door wiring then check the lights, so you can eliminate that from your mind

ok so went back this morn , took out the motor fuse and put it back in and the pulsating has stopped however, I now have:
drivers light stuck up, with dip but no main beam,
passenger light going up and doen constantly , but with working main and dip.
I have checked all the fuses, but the drivers motor ( despit the light being jammed up and none of the mechanism working) is making an occasional growning noise, thus I think it is nackered. and this is possibly causing the pass side light to go insane???

thats barmy, i have some 944s and the lights on those are joined by a metal bar, so either both goes up or neither does, dont know how it works on a 968

my best advice is to get on the rennlist forum and ask there
