Ford Focus mk 2 (2005) dipped headlights not working

    Hi,

    I have a 2005 Ford Focus and the driver's side dipped headlight wasn't working, passenger side was. I removed the bulb from the passenger side and tried it in the driver's side, put the driver's side one in the passenger's side. Turned on the lights, nether lit up. Swapped them back, neither worked again. So maybe the driver's side headlamp blew the second bulb.

    Checked the fuses, noticed then that my fusebox doesn't match what's in the manual, anyone have a layout for this type of fusebox

    The manual I do have says that the dipped headlights have a 15 amp fuse so I checked each 15A fuse in the fusebox and they're all fine.

    Any ideas?

    Buy a pair of bulbs.

    Should be easy enough to check the bulbs now. You should be able to see the filament complete if the bulb isn't blown.

    Changning both bulbs worked, must have damaged the working one when I removed it. Thanks.
