Peugeot 307 lighting issue - end of my tether

Car: Peugeot 307
Variant: 1.6 HDI
Model Year: 2000
Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights
Hi guys,

I bought my car back in April 2012 and since July 2012 the lights have constantly been failing. Lights go out on the car on a weekly basis and its been back to to Peugoet 11 times since I bought the car. I have just checked and another light has failed on the car this morning... All wiring etc has been checked and seems to be fine. Does anyone have any ideas what this could be?

If it's blowing bulbs , check alternator is not overcharging .

would agree that it,s probably a over charge issue with voltage surge causing the bulb,s to blow or is it cheap bulb,s you are fitting.surprised the garage has not checked this.

All of this has already been checked and there is no problem with the alternator. It's been with Arnold clark and they have assured me that they have tried all sorts of different lightbulbs an they are still going out. I just don't know what else it could be

Is it different bulbs or ones on the same circuit that are failing? And is the car battery ok has it been passed as good for purpose,and earth points are they clean and intact.Other than that there may be water getting into something electrical and causing an issue or a component faulty causing peaks and lows in the charging system .

I think there are a couple of earth points under the headlights. Check them
