Whilst driving my lights decide to turn off. It doesn't matter if it is on automatic or manual position. Can someone help as I work nights so drive in the dark all the time

Is that all lights or just headlights?

How handy are you with a muti meter?

If all lamps relays and fuses have been checked and are OK then you need to get the codes read which should give a clue.

My thinking would be check 1. Bulbs 2. Fuses 3. Relays. 4. Switch 5. Light Control Module. If these are OK get the codes read

It's just the headlights that go out sometimes one then the other, sometimes both at the same time. Bulbs are ok and so are fuses. Will get the rest checked out. Thanks for the advice Greydog.

I would check all the connections and plugs to the Headlamps especially the earths, get some contact cleaner and spend a little time making sure all the plugs are clean and seated properly. If the lights are HID Xenon don't forget the ballasts (normally mounted under the headlamp)
