Xc70 full beam not working
Iv noticed on my new (to me) car is the full beam doesn't seem to work. Iv tried moving the light controller to all 3 positions and still nothing. I thought maybe lamps had gone but no warning on the dash.
Fuse maybe? |

Likely relays failed in the CEM.
But it would help hugely to know the modelyear of the car (MY)

This has blew the fuse again.
It blew after a day or so of replacing it. Any ideas what it could be? Incorrect lamps? |

Unlikely unless they are hid units.
I would check for damaged wiring and if nothing found start looking for components that may cause issues like burned plugs etc. For a 10A fuse to fail will take a fault current of 20A+ for a period of time, the higher the fault current the shorter the time. Be aware that these fault currents can cause fires, do not just fit bigger fuses. I had a problem when I replaced the connecting plug to the bulbs on a car, the plugs were after market and unknown quality. They melted, and the light would not work, replaced with Lucas plugs and not had a problem since. Paul. |
