Where is the fuse for the headlights?

Spud · Post by **Spud** » Thu Jan 06, 2011 3:31 pm

My headlights aren't working at all. I presume I've blown a fuse but I have no idea which is which. And which fuse box, the one under the bonnet or the one under the dash?

I have a 96' model if that helps?

WOW thanks so much aza013 this is perfect!

Please excuse my noobness one more time but I'm gonna presume the headlights in this diagram are called 'Main Beam' yeh?

Thanks again for all your help. The fuse seems fine. Next thing go and get two new bulbs I guess.

Any recommendations on what to get?

Your fto comes with standard halogen headlights?
If yes, then go for Narva 50+ HB4 for lowbeam and HB3 for highbeam.

Ok thanks. I can get these at any auto shop yeh?

phunkydude · Post by **phunkydude** » Fri Jan 07, 2011 11:04 pm

Yeah, most auto shops stock Narva's lights.

Ok Supercheap Auto don't stock them and Autobarn don't either. Well not at my local store here. Any place else?

Also how the heck do you pull the globes out? I don't have a short enough phillips head to unscrew the darn things as there are other things under the bonnet that are in the way!

Twist the holder and pull the whole thing out, you don't need to undo any screws.

Oh dear, serious noob here.

Ok this noob had a look at his head lamps and both are dead. So I found a brand new pair of Narva 50+ HB4's on eBay for $25. Is that a fair price?

Yep sounds like your in the same boat as me Cousin. Follow my noobness posts above for inspiration and humour.

Spud, $25 sounds good; ex. shipping eh'?
Try repco if you haven't done so.

Or, get philips vision plus 50 if that's available at your local stores.
As long as they're hb4 for low beams. hb3 for high beams.

Correct. I got it for $31 delivered. Still waiting for it's arrival so no driving at night atm.

actually i just realized that when i put the high beams on the low beams come on aswell so the bulbs dont need replacing and my fuse looks fine so im plain lost
