Mx5 headlights not working

perhaps its the wiring leading to the lamp itself. I don't know about your car, but when i fixed mine, there are 3 lines leading to the headlights. perhaps the one leading to the regular light is probably cut or burnt. Try to have it checked with a car electrician if you're not comfortable fiddling with you car's wiring!

1990 mazda miata mx5 headlights wont pop up

There's a 30-amp fuse for the headlamps - check that first. Under the hood on the passenger side. Right next to it is a relay that drives the headlights.

I need to change the lights on my mazda mx5 first reg july 2005 to left hand as i now live in france?

Buy a new pair of headlights from a French Motor Factor or from your nearest Mazda dealer and just swap them over. Then go to a garage to get the headlight beams correctly adjusted. Voila!

If you want specific instructions, then you'll need diagrams which are not available online for copyright reasons, but Haynes publish the correct manual which you can either buy new or get secondhand from online suppliers like ebay and Amazon.
