Title: Tail lights, dash lights and rear fog OUT
Post by: C18WWN on April 16, 2012, 09:51:16 PM

Hi there chaps

Been buzzing thro town with everyone flashing me tonight,
got home to find out my tail lights havent been on
the head lights have worked fine, but recently the dash lights have been off too
I\'ve read that these problems are related and can be down to the headlight switch,
is this the pop up switch or the one on the stalk?
also the headlights pop up but dont go down
Any help would be appreciated
Regards
MArk

TPS (i think its called) relay. Look at the fuse box at the front of the engine bay. Should be the blue square relay in there.
These have been known to fail if they get wet. Try cleaning up the contacts and see if that helps. If not you may need a replacement

Must be an fc thing with the headlight switch as the fuse in the footwell sorted it
