Certain lights not working

[Ellie hewitt]

I’m having some problems on my audi a1 tdi 1.6 with my lights. Some lights don’t work but some do, I’ve changed the bulbs and attempted to change the fuse but it still doesn’t work anyone had this problem

Sorry to ask for more detail Ellie, but which ones work and which don’t?

Kind regards,

Gareth.

The real driver lights are all out and my headlight and daylight bulb is on on my front light

If you've replaced the bulbs then I'd recommend you get an auto electrican to take a look

Thanks Ellie,

My normal first port of call is to eliminate any fractured wires within the flexible harness section into the tailgate/boot, but I feel your car isn’t generally oiled enough to suffer with this problem at this time. Worth an elimination though -?? 
Do you have a multi meter,  and are you handy with it? 
If not, then I too would suggest you leave this in the hands of a trusted local auto electrician. 
Kind regards,

Gareth.
