were you still able to use main beam ?.

My astra H lost its offside main-beam bulb so the ECU refused
to allow any use of main beam at all, presumably to force
the driver to investigate.


yes ...............but as I was about to do 100miles on country roads it was
a pain...just as well I had one in stock......didn't even have to remove the
headlight or get to it by removing the front wheel like some cars.......not
so bad .......I'm liking Dacia more and more after a bad start ....
