    Howdy all

    I got my car back today after beig sent in for repair for front crash damage.

    Involved taking out front left headlight and fixing clips.

    However no dip, headlight or fog lights are working on the front left side (repairs crash side) but other side is fine and the indicator works


    Any ideas all? Driving around at night and need fix

    Without wishing to state the obvious...Have you checked to see if the wires are connected?

    Likely the plug connector wasn't put back on or popped off.

    The plastic covers will have to come off anyway, I can't think off hand what the access to the back of the lights is like on those...not easy I wouldn't think.

    If you can get to the bulbs then the connector should be close to those.

    I can get to the bulbs no problems

    But I can't see anything at all for wires or the likes

    No empty sockets that I can see.

    Look on the working side, compare it to the non-working side. See if there are any wires or connections on one side that aren't on the other.
