Couldn't find anything in the wiring which would cause the axillary lights not to function as expected. Some go when they should, some go when they shouldn't, some don't go when they should ... fark if I know how she got the last WOF. Several of those lights were on the failed list ...
Noticed the left front head light wiring loom has prior work. What a mission to replace the broken bulb. Still can't get it to glow. Tired with a direct battery feed, got one element to shine but not the other. This is a brand new replacement sealed bulb. Could it be because I used your typical three strand 240volt cable as the direct battery feed and therefore the other element didn't get sufficient current to glow?
i still think you have a bad earth somewhere mate, check all the earth to chassis cables and the battery neg to chassis as well
