Default '02 Mondeo lights playing silly beggers. - 05-11-2007 , 05:22 AM






Symptom 1:The brakelights come on with the headlights (side, dipped & full
beam)

Symptom 2: When the headlights are off the sidelights (& brakelights) come on
when the brake is used.

I thought at first I'd dislodged something when shifting furniture yesterday
but apparently not.

Where should I be looking?

TIA

Earth on the rear clusters or the bulbs on the rear clusters. Take each
brake/tail light bukb out until the brake pedal stops illuminating the
sidelights, try a new bulb in that one & if that doesn't cure it check the
earth to that cluster.
