Default Problems with S2 lights

I have just bought an S2 and I'm having some problems with the lights. When I switch the lights on in this sequence, side lights - dipped - main beam, then when I switch main beam off, all the lights go off. Sometimes when I switch main beam on then off all the lights go off. The lights have also gone off for no apparent reason whilst driving and not touching the switches. I've had to mess around with them - switching them on and off which eventually gets them back on again.

Has anyone got any ideas what it could be and how to sort it out?

Cheers
Andrew

Cheers, I'll have a look.

Andy, when you say 'being sorted very soon', do you mean that you have to get someone to sort it? If so, is it an expensive job?

Cheers
