hey guys have a big problem one night both headlights stopped workin at same time all other lights work perfect just have no main driving beam, i have changed the instrument stalks as thought switch may have gone in them but this has not solved problem all fuses are good has anyone got any idea whats happened cheers
 
have you checked the bulbs? a surge can pop two old bulbs. illikely but possible.

failing that a relay. do you have foglamps. if so best way to check if the headlight relay is activated is try turning your rear foglamp on (not the front) it will ONLY turn on if the headlights are on(or realy is activated) if it works the realy + fuse are ok! leaving the problem with the wiring to the bulbs or the bulbs themslefs...
 
i wouldnt be able to say were the break is so you can have a look for anything obvious.

are you getting power to the bulbs? (there has to be a relay, too much power to run from a straight switch. im sure its infront of the battery but i cant remember).

if you have a electricians screwdriver see if it lights up on the bulb terminals
