I don't mind admitting it, I can be a bit of an idiot at times, have been checking the lights on the boot lid, forgot  the brake lights are on the rear side panels, will check tomorrow now  :-[ :-[
Doh!  ;) You can see the lamps directly if you leave the holders dangling in the boot and drop the rear seat backs.

Yeah I know which one, checked the reflection in a bank window while stuck in traffic this afternoon in the city, coming back fae Bob.dents/supermops, left hand side :y


If you find the bulbs are seated correctly try disconnecting the light unit and check the pins which plug into the connector as I had an ongoing problem like this and it turned out one of these pins were not making a good contact.

Cheers, not had a chance to check it yet,  :y

All done now working fine, cheers for the advice folks :y...lucky I did'nt get pillock of the week for this post ;D ;D

Good to hear you got it sorted :y

What was it in the end causing the problem?
