Hey guys just wondering if anyone could shed some light on an issue the girlfriends AU series 1 Forte has developed. All at the same time, the following problems started. 1. One headlight has stopped working properly, (only works when highbeam turns on) 2. Cruise Control won't engage 3. Central Locking won't open itself, (needs physical key to open) 4. and the clock (installed by me) doesn't light up unless the headlights are turned on. Wondering if these components share a common circuit and whether a fuse may have set this off. The only things done to the car recently were the installation of a clock but that has worked fine up until now, and I replaced the parker bulbs this weekend with LED items. Any comments welcome. Cheers Matt
