Hi Puma Friends,

Ive had my Puma for about 2months, and the current issue is that when I use the brake the front side lights come on, also when I turn on the side lights or headlights the brake lights dont work.

Any help would be great

Thanks

Have you fitted a new rear light bulb recently?
I wonder if its in crooked and shorting out the brake / rear light terminals?
Or water ingress is the other favourite.

No, but I was thinking of changing all the bulbs just incase.

What is water ingress ??

Thanks

Water getting into the electrics and shorting bits out.

I have had exactly what your symptoms are and it was caused by a bulb badly fitted. It shorted the light and brake light terminals out.

Thanks, after all that it was just a bulb that needed replacing
