hey guys my headlights have stopped working in the EA. i have no highbeams, lowbeams, and nothing happens at all when i flick the indicator lever back for highbeams.
i was thinking relays, but i've checked them all and they're all good. the only lights that work are the parkers, but nothing else. |

Ok, do you have a tester? When you say you check the relays, what did you check? Pull the relay out. Test the coil on the relay base to -ve terminal on the bat and make sure you have 12V when the headlights are turned on. Then make sure you have power getting to the relay base for the headlights themselves.

ok, well you really need a tester to continue. You can make a cheap tester using an led and resistor:
