URGENT HELP REQUIRED :-(

[TWO]

Hi

BMW Z3 2.2, 2002

I am just checking the Zed over ready for an MOT tomorrow and have found the following : -

Front and rear side light bulbs (nearside) + Boot light bulb do not come on..............I have changed the bulbs over from the 'good to bad' side and the 'good' bulbs do not work

The original bulbs appear to be fine in appearance.

Main headlights and indicators work fine

Thinking it was probably a fuse; I have checked the fuse that I believe is linked............but this includes the rear number plate illumination................but this works OK

Please could someone confirm the fuse/fuses to be checked or any other suggestions

I'm completely mystified

Can anyone offer any suggestions............Many thanks

The bulbs for left and right side are on different fuses, and there may be multiple fuses for any given accessory. Change any fuses related to lighting.

Thanks Amancuso...........just off to the BMW garage now

Owwwww my favourite colour zeds

Hope you get the problem resolved

All resolved now..............fuse no. 33 replaced............must have blown when I re-connected the Boot Light Bulb.

Next hurdle is the MOT

That's good news!! I am sure the stunning Dakar will sail through
