Headlight Problem

[StevenN]

Hi All

Had an unusual problem the other night.

On the way to pick up the wife 30min drive no problem.
parked up. No problem.

Came to start up & drive away and both headlights were dead.

Checked both fuses in the engine bay and both LH/RH were blown.
Had a spare in the fuse cover so tried that and the same happened blew straight away.

I had another 10amp in the spare bulb kit and robbed the 15amp from the clock/cig lighter.
Both now working fine.

I will replace the robbed and incorrect fuses today.

But what do you think caused the fuses to go in the first place????

Many thanks

A short circuit somewhere.

Can't see any problems and works fine now?

Fingers crossed

Could have been wetness somewhere or ice moving something it shouldn't have.
