Am I missing something? Headlight/relays?

Hi All,

So the basics of my issue, my low beam headlight is out on the passengers side (UK), high and side both work perfect but no low beam.

Tried changing bulb and nothing, changed the one from drivers side over and still nothing.

So I decided to a bit of voltage testing - I'm getting nothing to the low beam wires - Drivers side measures 12ishV and passenger 0.01!

Next was checking fuses in the glovebox and all of them relating to headlights were fine with good continuity! So my question is.. am I missing a fuse/relay somewhere?

Is there a relay panel for headlights I can check or maybe some in line fuses that I'm missing/havent checked yet?

Thanks
Chris
 
Problem found - If anyone has the same kind of issue.. be sure the pins on the back of the headlight hasn't snapped to the connector to the loom.

Took connector off and checked and there is a pin snapped in the connecting block (the one you move sideways with a flat head to remove) meaning my connection to the low beam was Kaput!.
 
If you need new connectors there should be repair kits from BMW. There aren't any relays for head and sidelights, only the fogs.
