Fault Main Beam Symbol

[Big_daddy]

When starting the engine, the symbol appears, orange sun with ! mark in it. According to manual it says "Headlight failure - If there is a defect in the main beam".

Ive checked the head ligts, the dips, main and flash work fine. so does the harzards, front and rear fogs, reverse, rear dips and brake.

Any suggestion on what this fault could be?

Think you will find it is a self test when you start the engine as it should disappear after a few seconds dab the brake pedal and it will go straight away. it will stay on if their is a fault or come on as and when a bulb blows Ours came on the other day turned out to be a slightly loose rear sidleight,been fine since.

Cheers yeh it goes away, when you press the brake pedal but only comes on when re start the ignition. asume its all ok then?

All is fine, it self tests each time you turn ignition on and checks all bulbs, it will stay on if a fault.
