Headlight fail, high beam blue light is on?

Hi guys, when I turn on my headlights, the rear lights come on but nothing at the front, and for some reason the blue light (high beam) is on (on the dash. I think I've checked all the fuses in the dash, would it be associated to any of the relay boxes?

Thanks in advance!

It chugs like a steam train, pulling back and constantly loosing power, even when idling now...dont have any clear pipes, when i opened the tap at the bottom of the fuel filter i think it ran diesel out rather than water, im guessing thats normal...going to check the banjo later on...thx

Changed fuel filter, thanks for that.. the leak was diesel from one of the pipes between the turbos. Thanks for your help. Nexxxxt problem is whenever the sun is out / engine gets warm it turns into a chuggathon... it seems air must be getting in from somewhere? Would i be right in assuming that? Thx

I am not very technical at all, and was guessing it wasnt going to be a simple solution. I would be grateful for any ...
