Hi i have had this problem a few times.

it was burning out a fuse in the fuse box near the drivers wheel fuse number 4 (3 times) - its for the rearview mirror, a filter and the esr system.

also the drivers head light on drivers side blow as well.

very strange so its something electrical.

anyone able to point me in the right direction.

its a c8 06 plate exclusive thanks in advance

 

I am waiting for a scanning tool to see if their is any error codes I can see

This is copied from the handbook for a 2008 C8 but looks similar to the fuse you mention:

 

Fuses under the dash board, F4 10 amp -

Steering angle sensor - ESP - Photochromic interior rear view mirror - Diagnostic

socket - Clutch - Air conditioning - Suspension - Particle filter

 

 

When the fuse blows are you using any of the things listed such as moving the steering wheel, switching the rear view mirror on, changing gear, switching on the air con ?

Hi Dazo

 

On my C8 I had the same fuse blowing, when I got the car on the ramp I noticed the arm on my self levelling sensor had popped off the ball cup.

May be worth taking a look at yours, it is located below and slightly n front of the steering rack on the drivers side just to the rear of the crank pulley.

 

The switch is used for levelling the headlights and the switch arm was fully up,  after snapping the ball and cup back into place, no further problems. It may not solve your problem but must be worth a quick look

 

Cheers
