Posts: 2 Thanks: 1 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Problem with number plate lights Hi, I'm the owner of a Knaus camper build on a Fial Ducato (2015). I have a strange problem: When I switch on the lights all lights switch on, but the licence plate lights (and also 2 rear lights at the top/back) switch off imediately. So they just glow for a short moment. Anybody an idea? Thanks, Han

Knaus may have provided a bit of circuitry for the high level lamps, on my Rapido there was a relay which switched the high level and side amber markers on when the lights were switched on. This prevented bulb failure indications on the base vehicle system.
