As title really - the right side repeater is flashing about twice as fast as it should. The left side repeater is working fine as are all the other electronics in the car. It's an 05 1.4 sport.

I recently changed the headunit, but it only occured about the second time I used the car after doing that. I've done a BSi soft reboot, but that didn't solve it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Spot on - it was the rear right hand bulb! Thanks!

So is this supposed to happen so that you know when a bulb has gone?

I looked for a 'how to' for taking out the rear light to change it, but couldnt find one. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

open boot, look right, pull side carpet back. should see a black plastic wing nut type thing. unscrew it. pull light forward slowly untill you see the plug. locate the tab, push the tab in while pulling the whole plug out Smile

Peugeot and halfrauds both told me I needed an amber bulb, but my car needed the clear bulb with the knobs at opposite sides.

Weird.

Both amber and clear would have worked.

No the amber didn't fit, because the two little knobs are in the wrong place. They had to be at opposite sides as they are on the clear bulb.

You can get amber bulbs in different fitments if you know where to look Wink

HI guys I hope someone here can help. my wife drives a 206hdi which had a rear indicator out, I replaced the bulb and all bulbs are now working fine however the left side of the car flashes twice as quickly as the right..Yes I know it only flashes quickly if the current is out by a faulty bulb/ bad connection, however I have checked all connections and as the bulbs are all working I'm stumped..... Hoping you can help???? Thanks in advance...
