95 Charade g200 lost both Low Beam headlights need some help

Forum: 

Was driving home from work last night and just lost both my headlights. The park lights still work and High beams work when I switch them on. I have checked the RH+LH headlight fuses pulled the steering column covers, sprayed contacts with WD40 inspected the fusible link at battery. I don't know where the relay for the low beam headlights is located and iv checked any earth connections to the car body. I don't know where to look next and wouldn't have a clue where the relay is located. Can somebody help me please? I have also replaced both headlight globes

Sirion 4trak flexible brake pipes

Forum: 

Hi

A while back I changed the front discs, pads and sliding pins, I also bought brake shoes for the rear but did not get around to fitting them for a while. Have just done so and it has made quite a difference, before I sometimes had to double pump the brake pedal to lose a spongy feel.And this is why I bought a set of stainless steel braided hoses from WEZMOTO for £65.

However, if I then turn the ignition off, then turn the ignition on and off 3 or 4 times without starting the engine then on the fifth time start the engine again both airbag lights go out.

ABS Not Functioning Properly

Forum: 

I have a daihatsu storia 1998. When i apply the brakes and Tak-Tak-Tak sound is heard and you feel the movement of the brakes applying in the pedal.
