Headlamp bulbs & fuses

Post by Doggy »

My o/s dipped headlamp failed last night & when I changed it, I found this:

Unsurprisingly, the fuse had gone too, so I consulted HBoL
Haynes wrote:Fuse 31, (10A), passenger fusebox
Long story short etc. - on late cars the dip & main beams are protected by fuses 9 - 12 in the engine fusebox,
(9,10 = 10A main beams, 11,12 = 15A dips)

Maybe save someone else searching for ages. :roll:
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)
