Headlight fault My drivers side headlight has stopped working! I thought bulb had gone so replaced the bulb and doesn't fix. The side lights were working before I changed the headlight bulb but they have stopped working now too! Any ideas? Common fault? Fuse fault? (Although the near side headlight and fog lights still work!) General electrical fault?

Bad brake pedal switch. This assembly actually does three "jobs"; turning each left/right bulb on and then the center "eye"...accordianman

If all fuses and bulbs are fine, it's probably a problem with the wiring harness. Take it to the dealer. Wiring harnesses are not something to do by yourself unless you're experienced with wiring on the specific car.

Normally you'll find a brake switch at arm of brake pedal, up under dash. Switch should have 12v going in one side, when pedal not pushed, and both sides when pedal is pushed.

Fuses are a number one culprit in cars and because there is a computer in your newer car it is helpful to FIRST read your owners manual, and keep it in your car. Second, do always check fuses and you can simply replace but if that is not working then there is wisdom in have your computer checked at a dealership. Also, make sure you do check with a dealer to see if there are any recall parts on your VIN number. Get them replaced for free and know your warranty, as well.

Helps to remove the battery, but small ahbds can do it.

Directly behind the lens is a big round cap ... twist it off. The bulb is held in place with a spring that locks in to a notch in the holder. When handling the new bulb, don't touch the glass. The oil from your skin will cause it to shatter when turned on.
