Hi there,
New to this forum, but hoping for some help please guys.
Bascially by beloved 206 SW 1.6 has developed a problem with the rear lights. All the bulbs are ok, however when you put the indicator stalk down or up, the rear brake and indicator lamps all flash together, including the high level central brake light.
The front lights work fine.
Does anyone know what this could be? Or what to check?
Many thanks.
Ray

... as in Earth wiring, not what you're living on!
You may have to take the boot lining out to get to the earth connections. Make sure they are clean and metal to metal, and then tighten them down.
