#4: Re: **BRAKE LIGHT PROBLEM** Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 7:57 am ---- Bulbs blown.
Incorrect bulbs.
Incorrectly fitted bulbs.
Clusters not connected correctly.
Metal tabs in the bulb holder not making contact with bulb terminals.
Take your pick

Had this issue with a 1.1 206, I tried taking the switch out, but as I wiggled it, both started working again.

#8: Re: **BRAKE LIGHT PROBLEM** Author: Abzynthe, Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2011 8:28 am ---- im sure the brake lights are on separate fuses, and are linked with other things. If the 3rd brake light works, then the driver side one should aswell.

But that's what I thought.
Top one was working, left wasn't and right one was intermittent.

Its not the fuse, switch or earthing points.
Its the connector on the lights or the lights themselves.
