check the wiring. first check the voltage at the headlight plug.

then replace all wiring

My corolla had the same prob, turned out to be the corrosion from being near the battery and it had started eating away at the terminal. I cleaned it out, put some grease in it and clamped it down a little then plugged it back together and it was all dandy.

that caused just a single headlight to go dim?

Yep, check the wiring at the headlight itself.
KE70's supply power to the headlight globe and switch the earth through the dipper switch so if only 1 headlight is playing up, it has to be in the plug or the wiring to that headlight.
My guess is the plug.
I have a wiring diagram for the KE70 on my site. Follow the link in my sig.

thanks for all the advise guys but i found the problem was the spotlights on the bumper and the dodgy bush mechanics wireing just riped of the spotys and all the wiring out and away we went
