Main Beam Stays On All The Time

[tooter]

First of all hi to all. Inhave a problem with my c3 lights the main beam is stuck on. To cut a long story short I went to flash someone on the way home and a click came from the stick as I pulled it. Now my main beam stays on all the time even when key is removed pulled the fuses so it wouldn't drain battery but it still dose as the backlight on the dash stays on and I beleve the ecu won't go to sleep until the car goes in to Eco mode. After so research I found it to be the com2002 unit ordered a second hand one from a dealer on the net requesting the exact part no that I got from my one (as I beleve the part numbers have to mach for it to function properly) but guess what they sent me a completely different one and i can't get them to take it back. My question is would it be poss to repair my comm unit with the one I got sent or is it poss that this unit will work although it has the rear wash wiper function missing. I can live without that if it will work everything else. Thanks for reading.

Sounds as if it may be a mechanical problem of a broken bit rather than electrical. If the spare one can be taken apart see if there are any bits that could be used to repair the original one. It could be worthwhile posting this on the C5 subforum which has more followers, in particular coastline taxis who looks after a lot of C5s and if the com 2000 can be repaired he is most likely to know.
