Lights & Electrical Faults?

[taylorblue5]

Iv discovered that all 4 of my headlights dont come on, the inside two dont work on any setting, i.e full beam etc.

I discovered that two of the power wires to them have been cut? no idea why... but im thinking my loom is in a bit of a mess as when i tried to get a positive feed for a radio i couldnt get one, had to tap into the ignition wires, also found central locking motors in the doors so i imagine the looms been raped to fit an alarm or something.

Any ideas folks??

My inner lights were cut off when I got mine. I just made a new relayed lighting loom and binned the majority of the original stuff.

Have you ever done it before? It's quite simple if you have, if not I could see if I have a diagram floating about.

First idea is tell us the year, model and shape of your car.

Random guess if someone has cut the headlight wiring AND disabled taillights would be a failed dim dip controller and a crude way of stopping it flattening the battery.

Realisticly it's probably anything but that and I like to take wild guesses as sane ones are too easy

I bought a GT/E like this once. All the lights went out while driving down the M4 - the only thing that was left lit was the clock!!

All my faults were down to an alarm and monster stereo being removed by the previous owner. Good luck.....
