Hello everyone. I'm after some advice. I have a problem with my lights. When I switch my lights on, the full beam blue light indication always comes on but my lights do not come on at all.ie no side lights, headlights or full beam. Could this be an earth problem? Where is the earth cable? Is it situated in the lights themselves? I would be really grateful for a quick response as whilst this problem is ongoing, my van is obviously off the road. I need to get this sorted asap so I can get it MOT'd.

Cheers

Thanks. I'll try tomorrow. At least I know where to start now.

no dash lights either
brake lights work?

There's a big white connector with a thick red wire on the back of the fuse board, nearest the door.
you should see it with the glove box open and the door

give it a wiggle or clean it

oh and welcome to the club

Disconnect the battery and give these a good brush. Condensation from the inside of the windscreen tends to dribble down there.

Does the dipswitch turn the main beam warning light out? Do the tail lights work? Does the Horn work? Indicators? Could be loose conector on back of fusebox, especally if all the front lights are out - I've forgotten to plug it back in before . What model year is it?
