Hi Dave,

Yes, I realise the rear wiper comes on when in reverse and the front wipers are on. It’s not that. This happens when I am driving forward.

Anyway, I took a closer look today and realised my rear lights are now disco lights. When the lights are on, I indicate and both the rear light and the indicator flash.

I removed both rear light clusters and the bulbs were completely shot, falling apart etc. So, I replaced all bulbs with new ones. Cleaned up the bulb holders as best I could with sandpaper and contact cleaner.

I refitted just the bulb holders to test and unfortunately still disco lights on both sides.

What I did notice was when I wiggled the main wiring loom the problem went away. But, wiggle the loom again and the issue returns.

If I was looking for an earth fault, where specifically should I be looking?

I note there is a cable going from the boot to the underneath of the car but when I traced this it seemed to go into what I assume is the fuel tank.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.



Cheers
