Default HEAD LAMP PROBS

For some reason my near side head lamp is popin fuses for fun, the bulb is correct for the car and as far as i can tell the wires that i can see are fine. So i was hopein someone could give advice, or maybe a wireing diagram any help would be very gratefully received.

thanks dave

Put another bulb in and see if it cures it. Really occasionally the filaments can come loose and infrequently short across the contacts blowing the fuse but work OK the rest of the time. If you don't have a spare bulb swop left to right and see if the other sides fuse starts blowing.

Sounds potentially like a chafed wire which is earthing when it moves about to me.
