Driving the fathers Grande there a few nights ago, noticed there was a bulb warning light on the dash - which he was ignoring it seems! Checked the lights with my brother who was there and apparently the only one not firing is a single 'cell'/section of the high brake light.

The manual has a nice diagram of how of to get the strip out - but no type number for the bulb! Just a nice "-" despite having a power mentioned...

What kind do I need to get?

Most cars are 501 bulbs

I wouldn't know but pop one out and post a pic on here, or have a look on one of the auto bulb websites for one with a matching fitment

If it's anything like the old brava one...it's a soldered unit...you have to buy the strip with all the bulbs on it.


P

Im sure it says in the handbook they just pop out so you can replace them individually

Whole unit is about £15 + vat if I remember correctly.

they are replaceable they are these

(can't tell you the wattage though as this is a 24 volt bulb off a HGV but it is the same physical size)

Been having a look on http://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/

it says the GP High level uses a 501 IT DOESN'T

a 501 on the right....

Time to take the bulb out and go to the motor factors tomorrow I suspect...

I'm looking at this could be any of the bottom ones

did anyone manage to find out what type of bulb it needs in the end?

Having a look through here, it certainly doesn't look like the 501 bulbs as they look like the side light ones.

Have you tried either taking one out and getting it matched or try the manual
