Sorry for the delayed reply fellaz. Turns out it was the bulbs, i had the good old single filament ones in and forgot that my new lexus lights need double filament. I cant believe how much trouble that caused!!!! Shorting out the ignition and brake lights just cos of a bulb, lol. | |

Thought it mighta been the Cig lighter, but i ripped it out as soon as i noticed the problem and its still doing it. Thats when i started to really brick it cos it looked likely that i'd melted somethin. I'm gonna try the bulb thing first and if that doesnt help i'll check out the effects of the cig lighter further. | |

because i know if you put a bulb in with a double filament into one thats supposed to use only a single filament some really weird shit happens on some cars...i kno one car had the headlights coming on when u pressed the brake lol just coz the bulb was wrong | |

Well funny you should say that, the ignition thing seemed to go away if i disconnected the brake lights, fitted Led brake lights not long ago, that might be a deciding factor............. But yeah, it is still really wierd. Gonna strip down the arch today to see if i've munched anything. Still dont think i have tho. | |
