Ok, firstly for those of you who don't know, I've got a 94' K11 LX and I know very little about car mechanics/electrics, so please excuse my ignorance.
I've just got back in from a night out and had something odd happen on the car. For some reason the blue main beam warning light didn't go out when I dipped the headlights from main beam going down a country lane where I live.....
Gave the lights a few flashes to make sure the main beam was actually reverting back to dipped when I pulled back on the light stalk and it did. But the blue light stayed on.
Got home, turned the ignition off, tried the side lights, dipped and main beam and all worked fine, except for the blue main beam light staying on the dash whenever I had any lights on (sidelights, dipped, main beam, everything). It just wouldn't go out.
Turned the ignition on and tried the lights again, and then there was a very strange buzzing noise when I put the sidelights on (the blue main beam light was still on the dash too). It sounded as though it was coming from the "lights on" warning buzzer, but it wasn't making the noise it usually does.....
Kept the ignition on and went up to dipped and main beam lights again, and the buzzing stopped. However the blue light stayed on.
No bulbs have gone and everything else seems fine. The lights themselves work fine. Its just this bloody buzzing and dash light thats the problem.
I'd like to get it sorted if I can because A: I can no longer tell if I have main beam on or not since the dash light stays on whenever I have the lights on, and, B: cos the buzzing is annoying the crap out of me whenever I put the sidelights on!
Any advice appreciated, ta
