325_driver 422 Report post Posted November 2, 2008 hey guys, just wondering what could have caused this wondering if any one knows the wiring diagram in relation to the lights on the e30. The left low/dip beam, and right hand High beam have lost power, e.g. checked the bulbs, and there seems to be no power coming through the connection. And the dash doesnt seem to light up also so . . . Is this all related ? Am i going to have to take the dash out to follow the wires from the lights switch through to the connections ? where does the power meet up for the lights ? Any help would be awsome Cheers guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ashy_aye 3 Report post Posted November 3, 2008 could just be a problem in the light switch unit, (the part u pull to turn on) i had this problem once b4. and it ended up just b'n broken connections in the back of the unit. replaced the switch box and now its mint.

Kaz 64 Report post Posted November 3, 2008 I had a problem with several different lights going off at the same time. Turned out to be just a fuse. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Driftit 2078 Report post Posted November 3, 2008 If you can not sort it. Go and see Brendon at Hope Hickman Auto Electrical at the Top of Nelson Street in Auckland CBD. He has worked with E30's quite a bit recently and has done alot of work on their headlights. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
