My headlight flasher on the Doblo became intermittent and now is not working at all. The full beam selection is also not working. Is it possible to strip the switch down, or is it a new switch, or could the problem be elsewhere?
I have a horrible feeling that the whole switch cluster comes as one unit!
My 05 Family does this as well. If I try to flash someone (there must be a better way of phrasing that) my headlamps go out. When I try to put the lamps on Hi beam they go out for a couple of seconds and then come on (hi beam) although the blue light on the dash comes on straight away. However I've found out that if I push the stalk slightly diagonally down as well as backwards I don't have this problem, so I've assumed that it's a loose wire somewhere. As it's not three years old yet (it will be in april) I'm taking it to Fiat to sort out. Does anyone know if this will be covered in the 3rd year warranty?

Yeah I've had the same problem with my main high beam since the car was new. I go to put the main beam on and my lights go out. Before the 3 year warranty ran out I contacted fiat and asked if it could be repaired under the warranty. Well first of all they said I'd have to have a diagnostic test costing £50. Then they would contact the warranty company and ask them if it was covered. But it may not be covered under good old "wear and tear " !! So i said to the recepionist.....I pay £50 for you to tell me my lights switch is faulty and then it may or may not be covered !!! :bang: So that 3rd year of the warranty is a bit of a joke
So i just put up with it now !!

I use contact cleaner (as recommended on another thread) from Maplins.
I mentioned the problem to my dealer & they said if there was a problem it would be covered under yr 3 warranty BUT, if they stripped everything & couldn't find a fault I'd be liable for the bill (fair enough).
As the fault is intermittent I can't see the point in taking it in, a few squirts of cleaner does the job.
