Full Beam ?! - nick000 - 22-11-2013

My high beam is behaving rather oddly.
When switching to beams they come on for an instant then disapear again leaving a light only very slightly brighter than low beam !?

Any common faults for me to begin with?

Have u stood outside the car whilst someone else turns them on to see if you can see what's happening?

What bulbs have you got?

It may be the dim dip resistor by the fuse box under bonnet looks like a cigar tube

sounds normal, it's the dip beam staying on till the switch is fully latched, then it turns off whilst the main/high beam is on.
