rear spoiler lights

Post by robdrinky » Sun Dec 28, 2008 6:22 pm

i noticed this evening whilst following the our bongo home that the rear spoiler brake lights are very dimly lit when the side lights are on,they come on nice and bright when the brakes are applied.
i suspect a possible bad earth but wondered if anyone elses does this?
the voices made me do it!

Interesting, I will have to go and look. :)

Definitely sounds like a bad earth.

I have had a look and the answer is no. Must be an earth problem I would think.

Yes, likely to be a bad earth.
