1970 Bay (US import)

Just nearside, no probs with offside.

I have my side lights on (now in headlights) indicate left and the side light blows. Happened 3 times.

Any ideas peeps?

Thanks!

Bad earth?

I've cleaned every earth i could find when i first got the bus dude as it had been sat in a dusty cali desert since 98! :lol:

you mean fuse ?how have the lamps/wiring been converted?seen some nasty bodges when its so easy(well it is for me) :shock:

 

[Vinco]

I did the conversion (could this be the problem! ) haha

I used one of the "US to Uk spec how to's" from this site. Pulled the side light connections from the front indicators, pulled it up through the bowl and connected it to the new side light in the new UK spec headlamps.......

Correct? :?

All sorted, pulled only one wire through on the left bowl, not realising the other grey wire transfers the 12v feed to the right bowl muppet!
