Title: sidelights question
Post by: karl_tate on November 11, 2007, 06:09:10 PM
well i knew one of them was out so i took it out to replace and as soon as i put it in it came on for a split second and went out.
 
i thought the bulb had just blown so i turned the lights on and the other one has now gone out so i think that the fuse (if there is one) has gone but the problem is that i have only had it a week and dont know my way around it yet :o
 
none of the other lights have gone out btw
 
thanks for any help :wiggle
