Hi.
The headlights on my 480 work but are stuck down, any possible solutions
greatfully accepted ?!!!
The fuse appears to be ok, is there a relay for them or maybe a way of
winding them up permanently ?
cheers

There is a mechanical winder for positioning of the headlamps, difficult to
reach but useable.

All the best, Peter.

thanks for that - i found that and wound them up, then turned the ignition
on and they went down again ! i then removed the fuse once they were wound
up and they noy stay up. a few other things dont work with the fuse out
which is a bit of a pain but better than no lights !
any idea where the relay is that controls the lights ?
thanks
Richard
