Can anyone help please. After engine start up first thing in the morning i turn the lights on and only the drivers side headlamp lights up, if i turn the headlights on and off twice more they both come on. This happens only in the morning, no problem in the evening after work.

    I had this problem, but it was my offside that didn’t turn on.

    it started like yours then progressed to randomly going off.

    I noticed they the wiring was a bit exposed behind the lamp unit.

    try removing the plug, give it a Hoover/blast with air to remove debris, get some electrical tape around the cables If they look exposed.

    mines been fine since
