Hi i have not driven my car in the dark for a while seeing as it is summer. But last night was out in it late and realised when put the headlights on that the rear lights and dash lights dont work, i have checked all fuses and all ok any suggestions please.

Many Thanks John

Hi

I has the same problem mate and it was a fuse in the boot so if it's not fuses i'm not too sure but maybe you never checked back there. Think it was caused by my stereo not being earthed properly.

More technical people can probably offer more useful advice.

Good luck

should add its an R32. I have just had my stereo fitted. Would the stereo not being earthed properly affect the fuse keep being blown?? The stereo has been professionally fitted and not by halfords!!

Thanks John

Indeed it would mate - from what i've found on the forums this is mostly the cause

the illumination wire has been atached when it shouldn't of been

yep it was a bad earth they had to create a new earth. when the stereo went on the lights went off, they couldnt run simultaneously!!

Sorted now can drive in dark am happy!
