    206 HDi 52 Plate:
    Headlights not working - sidelights and main beam fine. Does this model
    have dim-dip resistor and if so where is it located?

    No it doesn't have the resistor.
    You may have the ground wire not plugged in. The black wire goes from
    the bulb connecter to the metal frame of the headlamp assembly. The
    yellow wire (yellow from memory) and also goes from the bulb connector,
    should carry on into the main loom.
    Hope this helps, Dan.

    <Dan> Thanks for the reply it turned out that *both* headlight bulbs
    had blown!

    <Anyone> Is it common for bulbs to blow in pairs on peugeots? Both the
    106 foglights blew at the same time and the 206 blew a pair of
    sidelights a week earlier and now both the headlamps - I can't remember
    ever having pairs of bulbs blow together on any of the other makes of
    cars I've had.

    I've said it before, if you are not in total darkness when driving with
    lights, ie. around town not on a country lane, you never notice one blown,
    only when both are blown, especially with headlights. And thats the polite
    version.

    HAHAHA
    Stuart could be right. Although, the most common give away is when you
    pull up behind another car...then you can tell that your headlamp is
    blown. Good news for you gruneec...but just for the record, I've blown
    two headlamps on my 307 and both were at different times.
