Headlight fault - caused by fusebox fault?
Posted: Sat Jan 16, 2016 4:53 pm
Hi all,
I'm new on here so please go easy on me!
I have a 2005/54 plate 1.6 Megane which has a headlight problem, the dipped and main beams on both headlights have stopped working, the dash still shows that that one or the other is switch on. All side lights and front/rear fogs work fine.
I'm hands on with all my cars and so far I have checked both dipped bulbs and both main bulbs are they work fine, checked power to each headlight and then no power, the earth to each headlamp is fine. I have traced the dipped and main wires from headlights back to one of the plugs on top of the fusebox and again there is no fed coming out of fusebox.
I have removed the fusebox (all fuse fine) and there was water sitting in the bottom plastic cover and also looks like water stains on the board.
So am I right in think the board/fusebox has a fault?
Can I swap this with a 2nd hand one?
Does it need coding to the car?
Thanks.
