    Default LKM update

    Tried resoldering three times, still didn't work the right hand low beam was dead. In desperation I decided to pull the guts out of the LKM box, plug it back into its cradle and turn ignition and low beam on. Then I took a bamboo squewer and individually checked which realys were closed. Now the relay with two contacts is the one for the low beam.The one next to it is for the driving lights, next one on the other side is for high beam and the last one is for rear fog lights.So took the offending relay out desoldered and cleaned thouroughly and resoldered. Works like a charm!!!! I hope Ive been of some help to others.

    Hi, I've got the same problem - right low beam is out, only getting 9.5V when ON. I did resoldering with no help. Now to take relay out I have to know which one is it. Do you remember is it the right one looking at the relays from the top or the one to the left of it?
    Thanks
    can you reply to nariusb@cogeco.ca please.
