really check the fuses by tugging on them or better yet replacing them
if they are old. otherwise might be the relay.

your model is not a us model. is it a 124 model.? if it is it could be a failure of the bulb out relay. its a black oblong box in fuse box. probably a bad solder joint.look for it and resolder.
