No Rear lights or brake lights.

[Laasberg]

Hi lads and lassies. I have small problem with her. When i switch her on, i have front lights all working good, but non of the rear lights are working, either the brake lights/numberplate light.
What would be the reason for that, is it bad wireing, bulb gone or some fuse???

Like i said horn and another electrics are working fine, just the rear part is gone.

I hope its something i could fix it as those lights are essential to be workin.

If the bulbs are not blown it sounds like a bad earth. Check for the earth wire connecting to the frame. Make sure the bolts is clean and tight.

Just quick follow up on that one. Thanks all who shared their knowledge. Like it was said, start from small things, i checked the earth, it did need some adjustment and i checked the bulb and it was gone. So all good now, lights are working again
