Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, when I put my car in reverse it blows the fuse (no.14) for the fog lights. I know ( or I think I do) that the reverse lights share relay R01 with the rear fog lights. I've swapped the relay with another that I know to be good but the problem persists.... Before I get too down and dirty checking the reverse light on the gear box I would welcome any suggestions.. and yes I have searched but to no avail. I assume that, as the reverse selector switch on the gearbox only closes the circuit it would it would fail on or off and any short in the circuit would leave the lights on? Migration info.

POST 2Original post

Joe, check the bulbs. Sometimes the filaments start to short out and cause problems, especially as they get old (likely with reversing bulbs) Migration info. Legacy thread was 77635

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks Asim. I'll check them out when I fit my new(ish) headlamp lens - hint, hint. I hope you enjoyed Scotland. Migration info. Legacy thread was 77640

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the tips. It turned out it was one of the bulb holders had corroded inside. £200 to replace the small 4 bulb loom (!), or a couple of hours, a picture hook, a bit of solder and some clear bathroom sealant to stop it happening again. Job done! Migration info. Legacy thread was 77881
