Stridey Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 evidently I have flickering rear lights. Intermittent.difficult for me to check unless I’m followed, but what sort of fault finding route should I check for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Sidelights, brake lights or everything. Latter I suspect earth, if individual circuit that narrows the search!Amber - TADTS ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stridey Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 Update.Went in garage and closed door so I could see lights in reflection easily .As luck would have it I turned the key and the rear lights only lit up, telling me the fault was currently (no pun intended) operative.Thought I’d check switch first. Merely turning it on and off turned the lights off correctly. So, removed switch, cleaned tangs, put dialectic grease on plug and re-assembled. Checked lights on key and they remained off until switched on.Diagnosis, loose connection on plug. Does the switch have any earth on the fixing tangs? I figured perhaps not as some have carbon dash? Anyway I double checked and re twanged the fixing tangs too.Job jobbed. For now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
