Chaps,
Noticed yesterday when going for dipped headlamps that my hi/lo beam switch is stuck in, giving me high-beam all the time. It is the switch keeping the light on main, rather than a dodgy relay. When on sidelights, the passing flasher works fine.
I quick separated the cluster module halves and can see that the beam switch looks to be removable once desoldered. I didn't have time to remove the whole assembly and get the switch out - has anyone had any success opening the switch itself? Or is it very much a sealed/welded unit?
It feels like the latching mechanism has become dislodged, there's "play" by pushing it, it moves 1-2mm, just won't pop back out again. Been like this from taking delivery of it a few weeks ago, so god knows how it supposedly passed the MoT that was done before delivery ...£158 for a new assembly or a warranty phonecall back to the vendor.
Cheers
Spencer
