Hi,

I ordered a new brake light switch and installed today following the online instructions.  Why have my brakelights gone from not working at all with the old switch to being stuck on with the new?

Cheers guys...

Hi Guys,
   Sorry to jump on this thread, but i have trouble with my n/s brake light. (not working) Mk4 2003 golf)
      The bulb didn't look to have blew, so i swapped it into o/s brake and it works.
          Contact looks ok in n/s, so i was wondering is there a R and L fuse for brake lights?
              Also while i am here, when i turn off engine and leave my lights on by mistake. should i hear some sort of warning to tell me this.
   Hope some one can help.
   Thanks Clifford

There is a separate fuse for each tail lamp F22 & F23

Yes you should hear a buzzer. Does the interior light come on when you open the door?

Hi Steve,
         No the interior light doesn't come on.
            I had a quick look at those fuses earlier, but will have a 2nd look.(tails lights are still working on n/s ?)
 Thanks

Door lock moduale is broke. If you get it scanned with vag-com it should throw up a code to confirm it.

Its a separate fuse for each side

"Door lock module is broke"...... would this cost much to fix Steve, or i can live without it?
  Does it effect anything else in car.
