No Sidelights

[SunnyGTIR]

Both of my front sidelights have just stopped working. The headlights and the backlights are still Ok. I've checked the fuses in the engine bay which are OK. Are there any other fuses related to these?
Could be the bulbs but a bit strange they would both go at same time.
Gonna check all the inside fuses tomorrow just in case, any other ideas :?:

Thanks,

Side lights are all on the same circuit, so chances are it is the bulbs.

I took one of the bulbs out today and it is blown so thats my problem sorted

Apologies about resurrecting an old thread, but I couldn't find the bulb type that I need for the sidelights (not the dipped or fullbeam).
Can anyone give me the details?

Type 501 from Halfords. I've just fitted a new one today.

ALSO....... There's a spare connector near the side lights, I think it might be a fog light connection, don't use this one by mistake as you'll have no power to the side lights. On my car the side light one is the shorter harness.

Cheers dude.
i went up to the local motor factors and just whipped the bulb out so they could match it - only about 80p each!
Got some new H4 connectors as well to rewire the main lights sometime soon. I did wonder about that brown spare connector though!
