Hey @simonc - whack the bulb back in and feed us some fault codes. Happy to step through them with you, as in most cases 4WS issues are simple fixes!
And yes, bulb out is scary - I wouldn't advise anyone to run with a 'disabled' 4WS system!

si your lude is a top condition fully loaded BB1 - hope it stays that way tbh - working 4ws should stay part of that package imo
4ws parts are mega cheap over here - i gave away a set of 4ws ecus as i couldnt even get anyone to make an offer on them
so no worries about getting parts or getting help on here to fix any problem with it
Ive had a 2ws BB4 for 15 years and the turning circle is like that of an artic
