Mini 35:
1994:
Description of problem (please be as in depth as possible):



Any non-standard parts that might be involved with the problem?
No

I have a problem with my headlights:

Sidelights and highbeam work OK - I don't have main beam.
I have fitted a new switch, all the wiring seems intact behind the grille.

Is there a fuse that covers main beam ?? Can't see one in my Haynes manual.

I have bought a multimeter but am not sure how to use it or what to look for.

Can anyone help please ??

(Have searched unsuccessfully for a topic)

Thanks

Check the bullet connectors as the one controlling the dipped lights may need cleaning up: -

Wiring connections at the front of the car behind the grille: -

Earth is the Black wires
Sidelights are Red/Red with Green
Headlights are thick Blue with Red
Main Beam thick Blue with White
