when my brake lights stopped working it was the switch on the brake pedal, only cost aroud £7.00 new from vaux to fix.

Cheers 4 ppls replys, just took connections off and wiped em and stuck em back on and asked my dippy neighbour 2 check them while i pressed the brake.

he said they both came on, he said 1 was brighter than the other, then he said

"do the stop lights come on at the front aswel?"

so i think i'll check lata when its dark if the lights r working as my neighbour clearly knows fukall about stuff,

brake lights coming on where my headlights r lol, ohdear

no wonder its only his woman that drives

Are they aftermarket lights? Cos aftermarket lights are generally shit quality! You'll have to check all the wire connections to see whats up...

ok sorry if this is in wrong place but its urgent as i dont wana drive lata with no brake lights,

sum bloke told me earlier that my brake lights didnt work,
so now im worried

got the haynes manual out and it says fuse 21- stop lights and hazard lights 15 amps fuse

so i look in the fuse bit and there is a 15 in there and seems 2 b fine, so i try the hazard lights and get out and yep they work fine.

So now not sure, and i cant reverse up against a wall 2 c if there workin b'cos its bloody sunny 4 first time eva :-(

dont think its the bulbs as the bloke said he thought he saw 1 flicker,

so any1 know what it could b or if im better off just waitin till its bit darker and c 4 myself if they work at all, and if they dont then prob replace bulbs and then hope????

cheers
