Hi all,
Mazda 3, 57 Plate (2007/2008) 1.6D TS2
I have had a problem with the drivers side headlight. The bulb 'went', was replaced and was ok for a night or two then 'went' again. It is a normal H7 type bulb (NOT Xenon/HID's)
All other lights are working ok so would assume it's not a fuse.
I have just inspected the bulb and compared it to a new one and there is no obvious blow. I then tried the new one and the light still isn't working.
What basic steps can I take to diagnose the fault? ( I should be able to borrow a multi meter if needed)
I suspect either the bulb holder or cable to be the cluprit but have no real experience with car electrics.
Any advice welcome.
Cheers,
Mike
