Headlights - Kinda Urgent

Hopefully this will be something simple... Yesterday my car mobile phone charger managed to successfully blow the cigar lighter/heated seats fuse, now the problem is neither of my side lights or drivers side dipped light work. Thing is both my parking lights, fog lights, and full beam work fine and as does the passenger side dipped light. Looked at the fault finding page checked all the fuses and they seem ok, same with the bulb, as does the big multiplug to the fuse box. Any ideas before it starts getting dark? Matt

Were they working before you changed the fuse?? If so it sounds like the multiplug, make sure its locked in at the far end before you push it home. its easy done

yes, everything was working fine up until then. Had problems with the multiplug before and i havn't touched it since as everything was working fine. Did give it a little push to definately make sure it was located but it didn't seem to do anything. Matt

The dipped headlight bulb on the drivers side which looked ok at first sight, looking closely using a torch i could see that there was a small break in the filament. This meant that neither of my side lights or drivers side dipped light worked but the passenger side dipped light did work. As far as i can see this little problem isn't on the fault finding page - maybe worth adding? Matt
