Nothing major....but kinda important...

My brake lights and parkers do not work atm.

Can anyone give me a point to where the problem may lie within the car ?

Could wiring around the speedo affect it ?

Any help would b great!

Thanx!

Three things to check,
1. the Light switch flick it on and off a few times, sometimes it gets crud in it.
2. The Dimmer (if it's a clubby) if this is playing up your park lights go out, which in turn effects the brake lights.
3. One of the bulbs is blown in your lights. Sometimes this can short the whole circuit and you get no lights on that circuit.

Good Luck

Cheers

Aaron

Everybody makes fun of Lucas stuff. Damn right it's bad :D but I must admit all of my electrics work a charm... At the moment...

And I can drive at night very happily.
