Hi all,  I have a 2014 i30SR, the left hand low beam has stopped working, changed the bulb, but still not working. Hoping someone can help me through this forum.

Not terribly sure but have a look at the main engine bay fuses, F8 60 amp for left and F2 for right . wqhat sort of lighting is this, HID or conventional globes?

Is the high beam working on the left?

High beam is working fine. It takes a H7 globe

I don't think it's a fuse now. Looking deeper now at the Intelligent Power Switch System which could be one module that controls all this and I don't fully understand it or what it may look  like.

may have to fault find it first checking if power is at the plug end of the headlamp and working back to see where the loss may be, check connections, all I can think of for now

This one caught my attention. Had assumed the GD had individual fuses per the FD. But not so. Ix35 same deal . They use an Intergrated Circuit Module (ICM) linked to the BCM .

As you say, Harry will have to check circuit wiring from lamp back to module connections. It appears they use fuses for stop lights etc. but have solid state current overload protection for headlights.
Probably makes sense, because its faster acting and can be built in to the circuit controlling automatic HL operation.
