beam me up kombi...light problem
on turning the lights on I only have high beam on the kombi. Parking lights work, and the light bulbs are fine. The column switch doesn't
work...only clicks but doesn't changes the high to low beam. Someone has wired the lights up, so nothing goes into the relay. There are 2 wires
on the dash lights switch. If I swap these around will I get low beam instead of high beam?
hope that makes sense..

Sounds like a dodgy switch.
Reminds me of a funny situation I had a couple of weeks ago.
We were about to go for a weekend away in the kombi and i thought I would do the right thing a check the lights.
There was no low beam, so I checked the new relays I fitted a few weeks earlier and they were fine.
Then I started looking at the switch, wiring, fuses, everything.
Last of all I thought I would try the bulb, and yep it was two blown low beam lights.
They were 100/90 so they are more likely to blow, but both at once had me stumped.
