Hi Guys,
you  have helped out in the past and info recieved really helped me out

new problem
i don't have any working rear lights, the fuses are ok there is one blown bulb, took that out yet still no lights from the others...
recently the dash has been playing up with intermittent display...temp/fuel/speedo/rev counter
i've noticed that the windscreen wipers are faster that previously when everything was working fine

any ideas apart from giving up on this OAP that has grown on me over the past couple of yrs

cheers for any info
Ady

Just found the indicators work ok

Have you checked for power at the lights, could be a switch problem

Also check the earth wire above drivers side cluster.

brake light switch? i think what normaly happens is that the lights stay on when the switch goes faulty
