Sounds like an earth fault to me. Take off the rear light cluster disconnect the earth and clean it up with sand paper, gently just get all the gunk off it. If its wet in there you have a sealing problem causing moisture to get in and corrode the earth and cause it to break down. (y) It'll either be really easy or a real pain and you might need a gallon of petrol and a box of matches!!!:D :D :D Good luck.
 
THANKS FOR THE ADVICE ALFAVAN.i did follow your advice and cleaned the wires and connectors.the earth wire in the cluster was not properly connected.
cheeeeeeers
