I had the passenger side headlight bulb changed on Thursday. Came to use the lights on Monday for the first time and both headlight bulbs were not working.
I had a quick look through the front of the light cluster and neither bulb looked as if it had blown, checked the fuses and both intact. So I took it back to the fiat garage as I wondered if they had forgotten to reconnect something when they changed`the bulb for me. Didn't check the bulbs before I left the garage
They have now said a resistor has gone which is making my bulbs blow now I don't understand this bit as I thought if a resistor blew it went open circuit therefore super high resistance and therefore no current, so how is it making the bulb blow??
Also I am still waiting (3 days and counting) for this resistor to come in can anyone tell me where abouts this resistor is likely to be so I can go and con check it? I'm really starting to wonder if that really is the cause
Thanks
