Measure the voltage (if any) at the lamps

Try "twiddling" the switch - it probably needs cleaning at the contacts

theres no voltage but there and i just brought a new light switch today from a front cut and its still the same

[Buddy]

i took it to an auto elect yesturday and he had a look but couldnt tell me what was wrong with it other than i needed a new light switch but i got the new 1 and still does the same thing

Do your tail-lights and number plate lights light up?

If so, it is not the switch, which means your autoelec knows shit, so time to go to another one. Sounds like a faulty relay, do not know where it is located, probably in the fuse box in the eng. bay.

Do your high-beams work?

So, you got a switch that's probably as old as your current switch, that's been sitting around a wrecking yard, exposed to all the sh!t in the world, and you're not surprised that it behaves in exactly the same way as your current switch?

Skyline headlamp switches are world famous for playing up when the contacts get a bit grungy - there are numerous threads on the subject.

BTW, were both globes that you replaced actually blown?

Check the fuses in the boot under the black plastic cover as the r33 headlight fuses are located next to the battery as i found out after 1.5hrs of searching a few months ago
