Title: Front N/S Lights not working Post by: capriblu on July 04, 2016, 05:14:23 PM Noticed when out on run yesterday - rapid flashing when left indicators applied - subsequently discovered that all n/s front lighting has stopped working. Sidelight, Main/Dipped front and side flashers. Rear all OK and all O/S OK. Will investigate later but suspecting a common earth problem? Any clues before I waste time hunting down the problem .....???

Found and fixed the problem last night. Initially checked main earthing connector point on inner body just below headlights - all fine. Traced wiring back to fuse box only to discover that n/s end connector block into fuse box was not fully engaged. Think I must have disturbed this a few weeks ago when I removed the (corroded) exhaust manifold shield. For once an electrical issue with a quick and painless remedy!
