No Headlights

Hello, out there.
I'm driving a used Disco 3 (2009 69.000 km, Automatik Gearbox) and today the headlights just turned off. It was impossible to get them on (normal, or beam). I checked all the fuses, and the bulbs. Everything was fine. Turning the engine off and one again didn't help. There was no message in the display, nothing. After 20 Minutes I started the car again and everythings was in best working condition. Everything worked fine. Can anyone help me, what is going on with my Landy? Actual I'm in Cameroon, so it is very difficult to get to a LR Dealer or Service Station.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Switch failed ? You could try bypassing perhaps ?

Thank you for the idea, but the headlights are working right now. Bypassing the switch seems not the best idea, because that part seems to work. maybe it's more a failure in the onboard-computer-can-bus system whatsoever..

I have previously seen the CJB/Fuse box fail, causing the headlights to fail, albeit, only one side.

Had the correct 12v feeds going in, but only 1 feed coming out for one side My D3 Build Thread

Hello Disco Mikey,

I checked the fuses, but they were all O.K. (quite hard to get them out sometimes).
But I haven't checked how much power is coming out. Checked the lights today in the morning and everything was fine. Now it's time to clean the car. The last trip through the Dschungel was "dirty".
