Driver side Dipped beam failure (Not bulb) by carlpenn

Just in case theres a connection, I will tell teh story -

The other night I came home with lights on, I stopped teh car and then turned off my lights. Thus the headlights where still on for 30 seconds or so.

I had to go out again later that night, so off I drove. When I switched the lights off at my Destination, the "Dipped Beam Failure" warning came up on my Info pack.

I have now changed teh Bulb with Two new ones and the light is still not working.

All my other lights work except teh Dipped beam on Drivers side. :(

I have had a look at teh fuse box etc all is ok. Although I figured a fuse would cause more to stop working than just a single item.

Sorry to be a bit thick with this but I haven't a clue :(

I'm told you can get this if the wires rub through on an edge just behind the lamp.

Thx Duncan - I have had a look to be safe and cannot see any Chaffing on teh wires, so I think it was just a wierd Rover moment for me lol. The lights work fine now :p
