    Switch? (If you can take it out, try to bypass it with a wire).

    They're usually two circuits L & R with two relays, so they don't fail at the same time.

    I have wiring diagram for trafic here hopefully the same:
    Left and right dips are on F30 and F29 both 10A, those get 12v via the brown wire from the stalk, easy to check for 12v on those in the fuse box. Sidelamps are blue wire on stalk F32, F31, headlamps white wire F28, F27.

    I'd use the relay holder as the test point.

    In standard version theres no relay except for fogs. Just had a look at the wiring diagram you posted. What language are those colour codes in, thought french first but doesn't add up unless BJ is bleujaune and NO is noir BE is bleu BA is blanc which doesn't make sense. Very hard to follow that diagram.

    Yeah I saw that. Strange..unless it's relay H. :confused:
    Likely a burnt up switch if there's no relay.
    The Manual I have (Nissan X83) is Deutsch, English, Espanol, Francais and Italiano.

    My preferred method of finding relays is get your apprentice to switch the lights on and off and stick an ear around for an electromagnet clicking.

    Bargain, I spent nearly twice that replacing mine, mine is second hand too.

    I was going to suggest this as a budget repair.
