Electrical gremlins strike again
 

As I decided not to trawl down to Wales today I decided that it was still going to be an Audi day. So into the garage, radio on it was time to sort out some niggly jobs.

Decided that I would fix the non-working electric windows so the dash came out once again. Traced all the cabling back and found an in line fuse which I wasn't aware of previously. Checked the fuse - blown. 1 replacement later and the windows are now working again. As are the reversing lights. :tup:

Also fitted a new set of VDO clocks and wired in some new wiring. So now my 3 VDO's have lights too. Hooray. :tup:

Ran some new wiring in for the radio and secured it down. Nice tight fit. Yaba Daba Do :tup:

Took off the cover from the speedo binnacle to see what needed to be done to fit lights to illuminate the dashboard as Audi intended. Bad move :mad: I now have no dipped headlights :wall:

Side lights - fine, Main beam - great, all four lights light up like a christmas tree.

Dipped Beam? sweet fanny adams. Fuse checked ok, tried new switch but whatever the outcome, no lights. Checked the lamps with a multimeter, no problems but there is no electrical juice getting to the bulbs. :wall:

Consequently I could do with some advice if anyone has any inkling whats taking place.

The only thing I can suggest and this is from a complete plank when it comes to electrics, is that if it worked before you started messing, then I can only assume that you've knocked a wire out somewhere along the way.
