Depends where it was built and because its so late it may be different to normal. Might be a printed circuit board in the passenger footwell.

I think yours has a jap loom in, it should be under the dash on the drivers side if so.

Normally if the fuse goes in the circuit usually used for the cigarette lighter it plays havoc with the full beam for some reason so it might not be the fuse.

cheers scottie , will take a look tomorrow . The rhino stickers have been removed and I,m polishing the whole truck with autoglym tomoz including top gloss then putting on the new demon tweeks stickers . Helen has decided on some all terrains for over the winter whilst she is on 4x4 response so has ordered some new tyres and I have got some LED amber beacons for the gv and Helens truck .
the truck will be working at Bovington next week as the chief marshal vehicle and Helen cannot wait to use it .
Thankyou again mate :thumbup:
