Thank you, and yes, it wouldn't let me post a pic, sorry and also yes not H1, H11 and also thank you, I see where it goes now and the light works again, strange how the drivers side is different.

I've been having some headlight issues on my gen7 tourer, for a while now the passenger dipped beam bulb would blow and I'd need to replace it. However this time, even the new bulb (checked it with a multimeter and it's ok) doesn't work. Strange thing is on the driver's side the red wire clips...

Awesome, thank you

Cool, thank you, I had read that and I'm only doing it as part of ongoing maintenance, it's never been changed since we've had it, hopefully I'll be ok with the 3 litres I have then. How do I check I haven't overfilled? Is it a case of just topping up a little at a time and checking the...

I have a 2003 2.0 petrol with the auto box and looking to change the oil. I'm taking it that I can just take out the drain plug, empty it and then it has the large dip stick bung hole that I'm guessing is the filler? Other than that, how do I know when it's full/how much oil do I need, had a...

I've already changed the backbox a few years back but it's gone again (cheaper pattern parts), can anyone recommend a new back box, maybe a stainless one or a decent quality one, any ideas are welcome. cheers... James,

Thank you for that, I've stripped it back and need to have a better look, also have a good auto electrician near by so may just drop it to him.

Ok we have progress, checked all the interior fuses and fine, I was putting everything back together as I pulled all the tailgate trim off ready to take it somewhere but when I put the bulbs back in they worked, after closing the boot though they go off so it's definitely a wiring issue, where's...

I checked all the fuses in the engine bay and they're all good. Going as a matter of course to check them all under the dash too, can't harm and then go from there.

Ok, thank you, the sidelights are definitely still working. Strange too as they both didn't work, I went to change the bulbs, out a bulb in one side and it worked, went to put one in the other side, it sparked and now they both don't work and no voltage, very strange. I'll check the fuse though...

No voltage across the connectors, any idea which fuse it is?

I've not had chance to check yet, I'll get out there in the morning to investigate further.

I have a 2003 tourer, 2.0 auto, the rear plate lights were both out, I swapped one bulb and it worked, went to swap the second one and it sparked and now they both won't work even with new bulbs, have been through the manual and searched with no luck to see what fuse they use, all the other...

Thank you for the exhaustive list, however I need to find which fuse is used for the rear number plate lights and those aren't listed at all, can anyone help? I have a 2.0 2003 tourer, cheers

In at the garage tomorrow for new rear pads and discs as drivers side was catching too and has knackered the disc, they don't think it's the bearing, they only did some work last week on it. Anyway want to spend as little as possible it's now sold when he pays the rest. Going back to a Civic...
