crapday Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 the near side dipped beam and side light have stopped working but the off side still works ok, this is only on the front of the 2005 1.6 C5. Could it be a fuse, if so where are the headlight fuses. I dont understand why both the dipped and side light went at the same time. Last year both the headlights went and I needed some electrical work done on the wiring loom. Could this problem have returned??? looks like I'll be returning the car in May to the finance company. Might downgrade to the C4. Quote

Don't know about newer 1.6. Get two of each type of use, when you replace it and it blows then you must look for a short. Sometimes blown bulbs fail as a short, blowing the fuse. Quote

Looking at the owner manual, it doesn't mention what fuse the headlamps use. I bought a new bulb, will fit tomorrow. Quote
