LH Sidelamp Fuse - Blowing

[rob172]

Hi,

Anyone had the LH sidelamp fuse blow repeatedly - in fact the instant you put a new fuse in and turn the sidelamps on? According to the fuse layout in the manual it also does the dash illumination.

I've tried changing the rear sidelamp bulb but made no difference, is it possible it could be the front bulb causing it to blow (pain to get at!)?

Thanks in advance.

I had a similar problem on the offside main beam.

For future reference it was the front sidelamp bulb that was causing the fuse to blow. Must have been on its way out.

Still trying to get the black gooey sealant out of my finger nails after putting back the headlight cover under the wheelarch! :-)
