Hey all!
I had a blown DS2 bulb on my 52reg 986 yesterday, and when I say blown I mean I have been left with shattered glass in my head lamp. So I've replace the bulb, and I doesn't want to turn back on, I've changed the bulb to the one that I know works to rule that out so its not a faulty bulb, I've checked fuses for the head lamps thinking there may have been a power surge, there both okay. I've also checked the contacts at the headlamp plugs and there both ok. Really at a lost cause with this one, I checked for power at the fuses and they are getting power, however I couldn't check for power at the headlamp as it was only with a test light.
Has anyone come across this before? If so any points in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!
