Hey guys,

So when i turned my headlights on the other day my brake lights turned on and so did my left hand indicator not flashing just solid when the headlights are off everything is fine.

I have check fuses and relays in the engine bay and in the car. Check the rear passenger side rear tail light for a expossed wire or a blown bulb or anything like that and all seemed fine.

Also they are altezza after market led lights.

Any help would be amazing cheers

check trailer plug
most likely cheap altezza tail lights

The lights have been in for about 5 years now with no problem and no trailer plug

Check all your tail light globes and stop/tail double filament globes. Pull them out, check and carefully reinsert with attention to the high and low bayonet nobs the right way around.

I unplugged the tail light assembly on that side and no change.

Would it have anything to do with the cruise control switch on the brake pedal or could it be the indicator stalk?
