DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

And another little fault that's puzzling me...

My drivers side headlight (on a RHD car) doesn't shine at full brightness. It is on, so the bulb is OK, but its very dim. I took the bulb and holder out over the weekend to see whether the contacts had worn, but everything was OK and connecting well. When I go to main beam the drivers side goes off altogether.

And interestingly, when I have the lights off the drivers side indicator at the front works fine, but when I have the lights on, the front drivers side indicator doesn't work, but the headlight dimly pulses. The rest of the indicators work fine...

Any ideas?

Thanks

Typically, when apparently un-related lamps start playing up, it is usually a poor earth on the lamp cluster. This would probably be why the headlight is not at full brightness too.
Start looking at the earthing......

Good luck

Sounds like a faulty earth to me. The headlamp is using the sidelight as its earth. Check all the earth connections.

Thanks Chaps, I'll have a look at that tonight...
