The 93 9000 CSE 2.0 LPT is one of the best. > A 'thump' to the headlamp glass normally fixes it - as does driving some > distance - you normally hit a bump that encourages the unilluminated > bulb to spring to life. If this is the case, then it must be a weak connection to the bulb. Try to trace the wiring and improve the grip of terminals/connectors. Make sure that the small spring is correctly hooked into the bulb to keep it in place. > Is there a known weak spot that accounts for this ? I'm really puzzled. Access to the headlamp is fiddly. I've recently had a problem where both headlamps appears faulty on the dash display. Then I just turn the headlamp switch off and on again, and the problem goes away. Maybe this is due to dampness this time of year in this damp country, like when my old PC sometimes starts up with the default 480x640 screen resolution; I immediately restart and it's OK.
