Strange headlights.

We've got a 2004 Fiat based motorhome and mot is due at the end of the month. Checking lights over and dipped beam won't work. If I turn them on first and then turn ignition on they come on but won't come on if ignition is on first . Any ideas please?

Does the dipped beam come on with ignition off ? It shouldn't do that, lights only come on with ignition on.
Do all other lights work ok ? Main beam etc

If it was like our 2007 Fiat, it was a problem with one of the computers.

A reset helped a few times, eventually we ended up having it changed at a cost of about £700.

May be a difference in models there ?
I'd assumed op has a x244, yours may be a x250 if it's a 2007 model ?

Only comes on with ignition on but won't come on if ignition is turned on first.

All other lights working. Can't get dipped lights on at all now.

Found the problem. Bad connection on multiplug that goes into light stalk.
