[Mk2] [NA] Headlights don't pop up properly
Hello all, having bit of an issue with my headlights, sometimes I turn the headlight knob all the way around and the headlights don't pop up at all, side lights come on, but no headlights - I have to flash the high beams to get the lights to come up and then they work fine. Any suggestions what might be wrong? It's fine nine times out of ten, it's just the odd time that irritates me. TIA.

One of 2 things possibly Sean.
Either relays or wiring but as ity affects both it's an idea to look before it gets to where the loom splits to each unit.
Cluster switch is on it's way out so is not connecting on the 10th time.

My first bet would be a sticky relay.

Chris, if you would that would be excellent!! Can I give you some money for it? Been meaning to go and see John for a while, driven past his car but never heard it fire up would be a great excuse to if he's ok with it!

Hi Sean,
I've got the relay and cluster from Chris so PM me when you want to collect. Evenings after 5pm are probably best.
