Yeah it will be fuse mate, also could be a blown bulb which caused the fuse to blow.. check your fuses and check bulbs on controls..

cheers fella, gonna go sort it now. One quick question, when changing a headlight bulb, does the whole light have to come off or does the plastic lense clip off or.....?
