Thanks both, all fuses are good (in the box under the bonnet).
I'll check behind the lights, not a lot of room to see much, but will see what I can find.
Thank you

Are you talking about the headlamp range adjusters They suffer with water ingress, the rubber gasket fails due to age, they can be repaired but using the guts out of a 1990 Audi A4 one You can buy new Porsche ones at about £130 each |

But nothing happens when I select it. |

You should be able to see where the motor is attached to the back of each pop-up headlight, there should be a cable connected to the little "pod" that contains the motor responsible for raising and lowering the angle of the light. I would first check this connector for corrosion and check the continuity of the cable back to the interior control. You may be able to test the motor on each pop-up headlight by connecting power to the correct terminals on the connector. |
