Hi All,
I have a 2003 defender 90 td5.
Couple of weeks back I kept realising the headlights did not seem on. Would flash the full beams and they would start working again.
Was driving down through France and the problem suddenly happened again, but there was no fixing it.
I can flash the full beams on the indicator stalk but I can't get the full beams to come on when pushing the stalk forwards, nor do the regular headlights come on at all.
I know there have been many posts about this, I have read the majority. Am try into fix it myself as am in the middle of nowhere.
Have taken apart the steering column. The indicator stalk switch looks fine!! But other than corrosion I'm not sure what I should be looking for?!? The terminals come into contact fine!
The relay switch (I think) is definitely making a noise when I switch the headlights between the 2 positions on the low get switch.
Questions:
Do the terminals / wires on the switch just pull off? Is this the best way to inspect them better?
Going to buy a multimeter tomorrow to try and see if power is running through the switch, I'm Relatively a novice with a multimeter, any advice on how and where to connect it? I'm guessing I want to measure the volts passing through?
If the full beams are working am I right in thinking the bulbs must be fine?
I've taken a look at the fuses under the drivers seat and they seem fine, is there a second fuse box I should be looking at??
Many thanks In advance for any help.
