Default Taking front end off

I'm trying to take my front end off so I can test my lights and ballast because the passenger side one turns on, then blinks and goes out. Does anyone have a diagram that shows where all the front end is connected? I've taken off all the bolts and screws I can but it's still on there. I hate not knowing a vehicle inside and out because of things like this. I can take my Land Rover apart completely with no problems but I feel totally lost on my wife's S-type.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well, I moved the drivers side ballast over to the passengers side and it still came on, blinked and then went off. I guess I'll test the bulb now. I haven't ever removed one so I hope I don't screw it up. LOL

Nahhh thats to easy to push the "thanks" button !


BTW robbing, don't touch the glass on the bulb with your fingers,use latex gloves or paper towel, oils form your fingies will shorten life of the bulb!
