left rear light going on an off
« on: 05 March 2006, 21:22 »
my mates mk4 golf has got a problem where the light would be on but when he drives away it goes off, he said he has messed around with it and made sure the connections and everything is ok. dont think anything is wrong with the bulb, he asked me to see what u think it could be.

I had the exact same thing on mine. I cleaned the connections but that didn't help. Getting a new bulb sorted it though.
