Why is my Nissan Micra K11 headlight not working?
Unplugging the ofending bulb indicated the faulty side and a quick clean of the green spade sorted it out. Earthing on light clusters can cause all sorts of wiered (or wired) problems.

What to watch out for in a Nissan Micra?
Another one to watch out for is bad earths on the rear lights – as well as funny light combinations this can cause problems where ECUs are told to cut power when brakes applied. With a bad earth problem I’ve seen strange symptoms such as loss of power when using indicators!
Why are the reversing lights on my K12 not working?
The reversing lights are probably finally controlled by the Body Electrical Control Module (the same as the rear wiper and a few more things). When my rear wiper stopped working, disconnecting the battery for about 30 seconds, allowed the module to re-set and had no problems since.

Are there any problems with my K11 Micra?
If it of any help it’s a 1999 998cc model with 89,500 miles on the clock, and the only MOT advisory (from January this year) was regarding a small piece of corrosion on the exhaust (I think). Some earlier K11’s did have an over fuelling issue. This was corrected with a short wiring loom that contained a resistor.
