asdon Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 Hi I am new to here got slight problem with electrics on my galaxy 97 1.9 tdi, It was pointed out to me yesterday that when I brake my front sidelight comes on!! - both brake lights are working. Any ideas where to start? Thank you. Quote
johnb80 Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 Change the brakelight bulbs. One of them has failed and the filament for the brake light part is touching the side light part OR there's a bad earth on one of the rearlight clusters. Regards - John Quote
asdon Posted March 15, 2006 Author Report Posted March 15, 2006 thanks for yr reply but its the front sidelight that is affected!! Quote
Guest neil_wiles Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 Front or rear side lights they are effectively on the same ciruit if the earth is shorting out try changing the brake light bulbs. Quote
johnb80 Posted March 15, 2006 Report Posted March 15, 2006 thanks for yr reply but its the front sidelight that is affected!! Thats right, the sidelight will backfeed from the brake lights, trust me on this one. Regards - John Quote
