Anyone as currently stumped?

Hi

Further to my original post about this issue, I forgot to add that whilst changing the battery I accidently managed to touch the spanner from the positive battery terminal onto a bit of the engine as the spanned slipped and there was a spark but nothing smelt like burning.

Since then my dipped headlights don't work. The flash/full beam only works if I pull the stalk towards me as if to thank someone. The flash/full beam doesn't work if I push the stalk away from me. 

Also the headlamp/washers have stopped working. The rear fogs have stopped working.

I have checked all the bulbs and every fuse and relay and swapped with new ones three times and all seem fine. The blue light in the dash lights up during flash/full beam.

Any help will be greatly appreciated as I cant drive the car in the evenings and will be a MOT failure!

Thanks.🤕

Doesn't this point to the steering wheel switch gear (and round piece around the steering column - forget the name) or wiring from it being duff?

Can you look to power up the things that don't work directly/closer as I suspect they'll work and they just aren't getting the right signal from the regular controls/switch gear?
