Failing that check the supply voltage at the conector when the lights are tuned on and compare to good side.
What you said reedy dont make too much sense, if it was a good earth the volt difference would be 0.

Sorry yeah thats what i meant. A multimeter thats the name of it. Basically what you said is what i blurbaled out.

If its a bad earth you need a volt meter thingy. Then get a good earth and touch this with one of the ends and the other end should touch the bad earth if there is a high voltage then its ok. I think thats how it goes. Not done that in awhile so im abit rusty on it.
