Hi all,

Have reverse bulb lamp out, have tried to change the bulb but no luck, where to should I start on figuring out the problem. I have checked the fuses and don’t think any had blown, all other bulbs are working include the left side reverse bulb. Am very lost so all help is appreciated πŸ‘

If one side is working then it won't be the switch, must be the bulb holder? I can't recall the setup on a uk car now as I'm on euros.

have you modded lights as theres only one reverse light on Uk Probes have you a picture :?:
if you have 2 clear lenses l/R it may not be wired up try putting the fog light switch on
and see if the bulb lights up :idea:

& if the bulbs not painted red, or removed, it's an MOT fail :shock:
Same if you have no rear Fog Light ;)

Hi Duncan.
Is there a limit on reverse light wattage. The Flying Machine is totally compliant and also totally useless.
