Hi,
I recently bought a car and need to take it in for an MOT this Friday. However, it's come to my attention that one of the bulbs is not working and I'm not sure why.
This is the light that I am talking about:
I am not sure what the particular light is called. I'm pretty sure it's not called the dipped headlight.
I've taken the bulb out and cannot see anything wrong with it. The filament looks fine. Here are a few of pics:
I'm not sure what has gone wrong with this bulb. I believe that it is a HID light looking at the blueish tint when the light is turned on on the other side? I know for a fact that the car has HID lights fitted, but not 100% that this particular bulb is a HID light.
I would highly appreciate any help as I am really clueless, being my first car. If it helps, the bulb is:
12v 55w 5852OU E1 23P and also says 'GE H7 A' on it. I don't want to order one in case the bulb is not the problem. :Oops:
Thank You.
