Brake lights

[Stevs]

My handbrake warning light on the dashboard and rear brake lights both suddenly stopped working today, nightmare, anyone got an ideas of a possible solution please?

Two different circuits so are you sure they both stopped working at the same time? Brake light failure is normally down to a faulty hydraulic switch (screwed into the master cylinder)

Yer mate, I found that info on the site but I thought it might be a fuse? I looked at the wiki diagram but me being a thick northerner couldn't work it out. I fitted a new aerial yesterday so thought I might have loosened a connection or fuse?

Are the interior lights and radio still working?
Brake lights are same fuse on early fuse box iirc?

Yer mate the interior lights and radio are still working, does that mean its not a fuse problem?

I would say it's not a fuse, yes!
Sorry for the delay !
Check the switch in the master cylinder is working
