Any wiring tech gurus? Driving me mad

[shrekwoody]

Hi there

Any advice on what i could have possibly done wrong please

Whilst finishing the joyfull task of new heater blower motor, switches & resistors ive lost main beam & screenwashers

Driving me mad!

Everything else works

Does the hi beam run thru a relay?

Any hints and tips how to fault diagnose my "cock" up please

Thanks as always, chris

High beam DOES use a relay despite what others have said in the past but more to the point main and washers operate through steering column. Plugs pushed home?l

[shrekwoody]

Yep all plugs pushed home

It was working, think ive disturbed something

Fuses, earths, all seem fine...i think

Ive seen relay 19 mentioned, gonna go out and see mines same

Can washer & hi beam be related?

Thanks

What year/type is the van?
Are the wipers working?
Has main beam gone too or just high beam?
Also - do the high beams work if you pull and hold the stalk?

Its a 1990 devon hi top

Wipers work & the lights just no main beam or washers
Tried swapping relay 19 as ive got mk2 golf aswell & running same gear

Left me puzzled & rather annoyed ;(

Thanks, chris

No main beam attall, no blue light on dash either ;(

I assume your new blower motor works ok?

It sounds like it might be grounds that have dislodged but it's not obvious?

Might be worth pulling connector off a headlight and seeing if;
a) you have 12v getting to it on main beam
b) you have a good ground connection on there
That would at least narrow down the culprit to power or ground??

[shrekwoody]

Yep, blowers working great.....i just broke other stuff

Will try again tmrw, earths & connections etc

Thanks everyone for your time to help & advise
