Technical Brake light - top light works, cluster lights don't.

[Foodo]

Brake light in the hatch wind works, but brake lights in the clusters in-op.

Checked fuses, can't see that there is separate feed from peddle switch to bulbs - which leads me to think there might be an earth issue, although all other lights (reverse, rear side lights, indicators) are working.

What am I missing?

Take the cluster off

Look for burning on the white connector
Check the bulb

You have a few options

Clean up the contacts as in link above

Cut the contact of and crimp a new one on. Best way

Patch in a new section of wire

The 2 x cluster bulbs are blown..through use

The row of 5 seem more tolerant
