Hey in desperat and help probly not the right section of this forum for such a question since it has nothing to do with the engine but the car is a 6 cyl haha..

Car is a IIIAU 02 FUTURA and 1 Headlight went thismorning wen i started the car and the other went this afternoon wen driving home from work.. both globes work on high beam and my dilema is i have no wiring diagrams watsoever to diagnose the problem further.. i could pull fuse by fuse and check them all but i thought i would save the pain and time and try and get a quick answer..


Also the switch is working fine..

just might be co-incidence that they blew at the same time. have you replaced the globes and tried it?

check globes first i reckon. highbeams run off the same fuse i think.
If this doesnt work check the earths, although i think this would probably also affect highbeams.

replace both headight globes and both park light globes and you will find it will all work again.
Generally if you replace only one, they will keep blowing alternatively

i would assume the globes are original, same age... chances are they will blow at the same time all things being equal... freaky but one of those things ;)
