• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Headlights and fogs inop

Went to take Spyder to work and no headlights. 2010 RS. Checked fuses, look good will check with meter. Starts fine but I have lost headlights and fogs. Recent upgrade was the scoop body panels
can't see how that would cause problem but will remove Tupperware and check for Burnt, or cut wires. Oh the Highbeam light in the cluster is lit, starts fine, brakelights and turn signals all are fine.
Not sure what else to do.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Sounds like a dodgy relay rather than a fuse. :dontknow:

Might be worth unplugging & swapping the relays around a bit & seeing if the fault follows the headlight relay. :rolleyes:

If it is a dodgy relay, you should be able to get a good quality replacement from most auto/auto elec stores. :thumbup:
 
I have the wiring diagram and meter, a buddy looked at the diagram and told me what I already knew. The book gives the checks which I will do Friday. Just hoping someone had a similar issue with a quick fix.
Sadly the signal come from the ECM, I hope it is not bad. Will advise as I find things out.
 
I did the swapping with no positive results. I moved the headlight relay to the main relay side and it seemed to work properly.
Next step is to remove the Tupperware and check for wire issues,check grounds and loose connectors.
Still looking for suggestions and wisdom.
Thanks for your suggestions
 
One thing weird about halogen bulbs is sometimes they blow at the same time. Had it happen to me twice. I think when one blows, it sends a surge to the other bulb and it blows. What I am trying to say is, change the bulbs and see what happens. It may not be the solution, but an easy thing to check.
