DC_ Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 The main beam on the headlights aren't working. I've got two different possibilities. 1). The relay faulty? 2). ECU ? It was the search on tinterweb that suggested ECU but, I thought my trusted forum will solve it. And yes the old cliche, it's for a friend ? It's a 93/94 200tdi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncmc Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 What about the switch itself or wiring, or even fuse? Just wondering... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncmc Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Fuses A2 and A8 according to my workshop manual for a 1992 model year. Should be 10A fuses. That's the fuse box on the dash. The headlamp relay is under the steering column. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_ Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 Thank you ! Instrument pinnacle off just now, looking for relay. I'm sure he would have checked fuses. Will check back in...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC_ Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 Ok, bulbs have been seen working, when you pull lever towards yourself they work. When you push lever away from you they don't stay on constant full beam. (Yes dipped beam is on at this point) So the problem is lever?

duncmc Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Sounds like it. If you get a spare they are pretty easy to swap over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC_ Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 Ok, old lever was in the boot when bought, one on said range on the back. So assuming it's off a donor. Might still be the lever if it wasn't tested. Think the way forward is a tested lever? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
