(T) Damn Stilo Electrics

Ok changed my bulbs in the car today to my xenon upgrade bulbs which are alot of dosh (can't remember how much) but i got them all headlights, main beam and fog lights. My drivers side Main Beam bulb was blown, put the new bulb in and guess wat it ****ing blew that an all. To say am pissed off is an understatement, was a waste of time and money and now having to go book it into Fiat to get the damned thing checked which means taking a day off work cos i can't do without the car at all due to my work. And then having to go to the hassle of ordering another bulb. So annoyed and raging!!!

All cars are capable of shorts (not just stilos) get your multimeter out & trace the fault,few simple voltage drop tests should have it sussed in no time

Don't have the time to sit and do that am afraid plus it's under warranty so fiat can do it. I know all cars are capable of it but it's funny how it's blown two bulbs especially one brand new one and it's happening to my mate, every new bulb he puts into his blows. Mines is also telling me Bulb Failure at both sides when all bulbs are working bar the main beam on drivers side

What wattage are the new bulbs you have fitted,same as old ones?

If there's a short a fuse should go, not the bulb. If the bulb goes -it's a power problem i.e. mismatched or dodgy bulb

What make bulbs did you buy?

Hey Rroope I love the new avitar Baby face

Has the fuse blown? Can only go on info supplied,Juego not got back to say what bulbs(wattage)were fitted which is probably why the bulb failure light is always on.Think stilo headlights are ok as standard,damn sight better than mk1 punto....then again so is a candle

The Bravos take some beating for DIMMMMMMMM headlights
Standard Stilo look great to me.
After the 4 years of the Bravo I can SEEEEEEEEEEEE!!
I CAN SEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

how to make dim headlights brighter?????

CLEAN THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I WAS BLIND BUT NOW I SEE - PRAISE THE LORD!

Tried that. Putting water on them just makes the candle go out

LOL

Thanks Phil, great minds ey??

Isn't he cute though! God I sound really girly now!!

Well I'm sorry to tell you but if that's you in the the avitar then your not old enough to hold a driving licence and if I don't get my buckshee hellfrauds trade card I'm gonna tell them their employing an under age person
