Hi,
Immediately after passing the 200,000 mile mark :worship:, my Croma 1.9 8v seems to have suffered a bit of a mid-life electrical crisis.
Whilst the roof level brake light works perfectly, the low level brake lights have stopped working. The bulbs have been checked and replaced and are fine, and the tail light part works, but the brake filaments do not light up.
At the same time, I have noticed that three of the dashboard warning lights remain very dimly lit at all times (it's hard to see them in daylight, but they are obvious at night).
I assume that it is probably an earthing problem, although googling suggests it may also be a fault in the body computer or the instrument binnacle.
Could anyone please help? I have no idea where to find the earths or how I would go about replacing the computer or binnacle. Are these likely to be expensive from a breaker?
Thanks
