OK - both headlights packed up on me last week & I've been driving around since with the sidelights and driving lights on - not clever, I know, but needs must...
I'm assuming its' the 30A fuse thats' blown in the fuse box under the bonnet - after puzzled looks from Halfrauds & local motor factors' staff, spotted these on teabay.....

any thoughts, anyone?

'ang on - I've just found these, too........

so for the sake of a couple of quid, I should be sorted - IF its' the fuse!

Try vehicle wiring supplies (google it).
or car builder solutions.

They have virtually everything electrical for cars...

Thats the first thing to check the fuse,

you should have another 30a fuse in one of the fuse boxes so try that to see if it is the fuse, if it is try your local car parts shop, the fuses are nothing special and the shop should stock them also grab yourself some mini blade fuses and keep them in the van just incase,

next if it is the fuse thats gone keep an eye on it, it might be that the fuse is old and worn if another one blows you may have to do a bit if investigating

but at the end of the day people buy spare bulb kits for there vehicles why not a spare set of fuses and fan belt simple to get hold of simple to store and simple to replace AND it keeps you going so no big recovery bill if you not a member of recovery service
