Getting to the end of my tether

Post by el sketcho »

Still can't get these bloody rear fogs to work and to an insult to injury the O/S side lights have stopped working! 8) I really can't work out what to do. The rear side light is only getting 0.1 volts now! It was fine yesterday morning and I didn't mess around with it.
If you're better than the leading brand, why aren't you the leading brand?

Sounds like a bad earth.

Best to remove the earth straps nearest to your problem area & clean thoroughly, then coat in BP Petroleum jelly or similar before replacing. You may as well clean the live terminals as well.

Best of luck.
