I found myself in the unfortunate position on Tuesday of doing 8?mph on the m4 with no headlights. After going over a bump/animal/pothole the fuse for the n/s headlight blew. As the n/s operates the headlamp flap motor the flaps closed up and left me in the dark! The cautionary tale here is that for a few pennies it may be worth investing in a couple of extra diodes and wiring in the offside dip and main to the motor circuit so power on either side will keep the headlights visible. This is what I did. 70p and 20 mins for a whole stack of peace of mind.
Since then I have gone over the wiring as best I am able to try to find a short. While I have found and corrected some very poor wiring I am still blowing fuses for the n/s headlight and sidelights. one or the other fuse may blow under acceleration. The only link I can think of between the two circuits is the dim dip controller. I know one is fitted but I am unable to find it. Can anyone point me in the right direction and give me a clue what it looks like? If I find it I will remove it as I don't like dim dip.
