  • Resolved Help with RH low beam - advice needed for next step

    edit: problem resolved - dodgy H4 connection (unable to explain low current at fuse connection - but if it aint broke...)
    Guys,
    I noticed that my RH low beam was dead... easy fix I thought. Checked Globes - RH low beam blown, replaced both left and right globes - RH low beam still not working. Have checked fuses and both OK. Removed and reinserted relay (but if it was a relay prob assume both low beams would not work). Still no left hand low beam. Put a test light across the fuse terminals - glows bright on LH low beam - barely glows on RH low beam. So I assume that I have a problem with wire from relay to fuse on RH low beam...possibly a dodgy connections? Does that sound right??? What next - I assume I have to remove the entire fuse box and check connections...any tips on best way to do this?
    Thanks,
    Rick (ps - have participated in forum before but have changed user name)

    Any issuesd with the right hand high beam? They both use the same earth return wire. Just trying to isolate if that cvould be factor.

    EDIT: Just saw you had a solution so all good.

      I too have lost the RH low beam so I jumped onto PP and read about the individual fuses.

      There were no fuses for the low beam only a 10amp fuse for each hi beam and they were both OK so I fitted a new H4 globe which I had in my spares cupboard but the RH low beam still didn't work. As it was getting dark I left it but I will check to make sure one or both globes are OK when I get home tonight.

      Any other suggestions?
      Cheers,
      John

        I'm having a similar problem as well, except I have blown both left low beam and then today right low beam within 3 weeks of each other.

        I'm not sure if its a "globe issue"or a "wiring issue"

        Rghe only change I have made:

        upgraded the standard globes to Narva 50% blues 60/55w certainly added some extra brighteness which is useful when going from high beam with Hid spots to low beam

        Now my only issue is how to get the replacement globe out of the whole headlight surround - yes the little buggers can slip into the headlight void ! :evil:

        Trundling off to Mr Toyota and they can have a look later today with any luck
