Default S80 High beam not working

Hi
Ive recently bought a 2005 S80 and i have an issue with the headlight full beam not working ---- and no, this isnt the usual problem !! I have the lights on 'full on'
I have no flash or high beam, the bulbs look ok.
I suspected fuses or relays but I cant seem to find them to check - any suggestions ?
I have removed the stalk to see if there were any visible signs of damage and there doesnt seem to be.
If anyone can shed any 'light' on this it would be very greatfully received.

Many Thanks
Phil

fuses are in the panel under the steering wheel (22/23). Check connections/sockets, relays.

possible causes are 1) stalk switch 2) relays 3) connector into each bulb. did you also try swapping out the bulbs? I've had bulbs be bad that looked ok to the naked eye...

Hi Same problem 2007 S80 D5. I know it’s a while ago you posted but could be useful to someone else. Things I done.

Checked fuses
Turned light switch to Headlights
Replaced indicator stock
Noticed fog lights were not working either.
Noticed light switch not lighting up

Replaced Light switch. Bingo sorted it. Hope this helps someone
