Any further help on this one please?

I got a feeling the bulbs on a brown rubber stalk with two thin wires running to the dash circuit on the switch PCB..?

You may find a clean & a jiggle might get the bulb to work again!!?

They normally just prise out there are a couple of press in barbs top and bottom, here's a rather grotty picture but best I can do at this time of night!

Four clips holding the back where it connects to the loom... Thin driver in the side & gently prize out, the rest should follow... (Two clips on each side, staggered/off set so you can't re assemble the wrong way round!)

I suggest you do t on a tray so you don't lose anything out of the switch!

I would also take the opportunity to clean the contacts on the switch while in there... they sometimes mung up!??

Thats a fog light switch or something from the top bank!?

You were right Jaylee - the bulb is in a long rubber thin tube with 2 thikn wires going into the switch. I have given it a clean and a jiggle and still no good - so going to have replace the bulb.

Thanks a lot for your help - another little niggle sorted
