Hi there from sunny Bolton.

I have a Crossfire issue that is only on UK/European versions. Is there anybody out there that can do a quick 30 second check on their car for me. One other member has got back to me, but we want to ensure we get the same result from a number of people.

Any help really appreciated.

Cheers

Sorry to all. it looks like my "inserted" image on the previous post is corrupt. I will attach it instead.

File attachment is "Headlight.docx"

Thank you.

 

Happy to help, but your attachment is corrupted so no idea what you need to know

Hi Gareth
Sorry about the corrupt image. I added the image to an attachment, can you see that OK?

The issue is the headlight adjustment switch.

 

Nope. Doesn’t open

 

Back to basics then:-

Headlight switch...... adjacent to that is a small rotary switch that on mine and others appears to "click" 3 times. The switch indicator however is only marked as having a position 0 and a position 1.

When I adjust the rotary switch by one click the headlights move up, I adjust the rotary switch to the next click position (which is marked as number 1 on the dial) nothing happens. I then move the switch to the last click, again nothing happens.

What happens on your Crossfire?

The attachment opens for me?

 

Yep. Mines the same. Only one level of adjustment, for a single passenger.The extra clicks were for the 4door Merc that the switch design originated from.

 

Cheers Gareth, that's 3 UK cars checked out, all with the same results - a 3 way switch that only works in 1 position. Saves me digging around for wiring diagrams trying to find a fault that doesn't exist.

Thanks for explaining how the switch came to be used. This day and age they would have spent millions of pounds designing a new switch instead of using up existing stocks. They would also spend a fortune in throwing the old ones out as well.

Once again
Many thanks for your help and assistance.
