Headlamp-on Dingalingaling - what/where!?
« on: 17 September 2018, 18:05:58 »

Looking for the relay that controls the lights-on warning tiddly. I've been over the forum for a while now I think it's behind the glovebox, just looking for a location and part number.

Mine's becoming more and more erratic, and for someone as forgetful as me a headlamps-on warning device is a very useful thing.

Extra: I seem to recall that FLs have a buzzer, whereas mine and other older stuff like Cavs have a dingalingaling noise. So for originality/pedant's sake, looking for that early type. 


Thanks in advance  :y

Im not shure, but i thought that function was built into the lightswitch itself. At least ive experienced slightly different sound when changing the switch in the past.

Info on OOF suggests manual has it in the switch, but autos have a separate relay. (Now makes me wonder if my spare headlamp switch I picked up ages ago is in fact off a manual, and therefore might not work right, should I ever need it...  :-\)

It's a little white box plugged into the fuse box under the steering column IIRC...
