How long ago were they last working and did they both fail at the same time?

I would guess its a fuse, and I would guess it might have blown when a headlamp bulb went.

Thank you both for your responses, I thought as the main beam works it wouldn't be the fuse, but I'll have a look tomorrow and see if it is, most weird

More likely to be 2 headlight bulbs failed.There will be seperate fuses for each of the dip and main beam,so 4 fuses in all.

It's entirely possible that both dip bulbs have blown. If they're the same type as the main beam bulbs you can test them by swapping bulbs from the dip unit to the main beam one. Swapping the main beam bulbs to the dip beam units will also assist you to check the fuses.

I had two brake light bulbs blow on the same day last week in a van - I was so convinced they couldn't both have blown I checked everything else first. Wasted half an hour before trying the obvious...

It's not something silly like the key has to be in the ignition is it?

vxfan....thats one i can answer as i did the testing with the engine running.
im not a car freak, so was finding it weird the main beam lights worked, but the normal big lights didnt assuming both lamps would be the same, but ill go and get some lamps and check it out, and reprot back when i find out
thanks again>> It's not something silly like the key has to be in the ignition is it?
