These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

2 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

hi all. noticed this evening that i have a bulb out, so after a bit of checking I have a side light out on the drivers side and a headlamp out on the passenger side, full beam works on both. Now is that just coincidence that both bulbs go at the same time , but in a different way ? Or could it be the headlamp switch messing about ? I have noticed during this winter that sometimes I switch the lights on and then after a couple of seconds the lights come on . what do you reckon ?, probably easier to try a couple of bulbs first. thanks

POST 2Original post

Coincidence I would say. Both bulbs are cheap to replace and make useful spares if not. Check connections are clean/dry on the units themselves.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
