I went to drive my car in the dark the other day and the dipped beam wont come on.

The full beam works fine and the lights at the back work ok.

Does anyone have any advice? or is anyone in Somerset that could let me try there control box?

Probably one of the black control boxes on the shelf behind the carpet in the boot.

If there is another Cerb owner near to you, then pop over and swap the boxes over to see if it is that, takes les than a minute to do.

Thanks guys, I have tried a search of the topics but only found a few tips, what I was hoping for was for someone to say they were local so I could check their control box =]

I have taken the control box apart (does anyone know which one would be the culprit?) and couldn't see anything wrong, but then I am not really sure what I am looking for.

HI Paul,

No one will know if there local to you as your profile has no location listed.

Also check the connecters under the steering column.

Give the light switch a tap!!

Thanks for all the help guys, I had a look last night and everything was clean and sound, however I found that the lights are connected to the loom via a small spade connector by the battery that had come undone... I simply plugged it in and all is ok!
