Hi

I have and LC5 2012, now it out of its 5 years warranty.  Last night I noticed one of the headlights was out. I turned the stork to off the ON and the headlight came on.

This only happens when the stork is set to Auto only one headlights work but when I do it manually both headlights work.

Has anyone come across this ?

thanks

The way you have explained your problem is confusing !
Please try and explain a bit better?

Sorry, I'll try again.

When the headlights are set to "AUTO" one of the headlights does not work.  Both side lights work though.

If I set it to "OFF" and then put the headlights on myself both headlights work including the side lights.

Do you mean the dip beam or the high beam ?

Hi Archy
I know what "Auto" lights are but I cannot see why there should be a difference between Auto and "on", but as I said first off you need to tell more,
things like:
two bulbs for dip
two bulbs for high
what type of lamps are they
have you checked the fuses
has it got cornering lights
have you checked the lamp holders on both sides (mainly the side that was off.
Have you done any voltage checks
have you got access to a wiring diagram

Obviously I do not have the same model  but its just a matter of some checks
