Hi guys

Checking the lights on my van and i've got a few problems:

No reversing light - bulb is OK

and no brake lights - bulbs are OK

No chance of getting the MOT with dodgy lights PLEASE HELP

I had this......turned out to be a blown fuse!
worth a look?

do you have a multimeter if fuse is good check you have 12v between center
connector and earth when respective lights should be on if its there probably a bit of oxidisation get some wire wool or fine wet and dry and clean contacts on the socket and bulb if you don't have 12v then you have a wiring problem
