    Hey everyone my right tail light was out so i replaced the bulb in it, now my brake lights doesnt work in either light. The tail lights come on when the headlights are on like they should, it just doesnt light up when i push the brakes in...

    Any ideas?

    Cheers Mitch

    Perhaps you have purchased the incorrect replacement bulb (not suggesting your dumb or anything!:D )

    Did that once on my old VH and everytime I braked my parker lights came on. Was quite funny really but had me scratching my head for 3 weeks till I figured it out. :sleeping:

    Hey cheers guys. Um i dont think it was a faulty globe because i replaced them both, and they both dont work. I got it from my local car spares place so it should be right. Ill check the fuse and park light thingy today.

    Cheers Mitch
