Hi guys, hope you might be able to advise....

54 plate VRS and at the weekend the heater pug light (orange curly thing) started to flash on the dash. As this wasnt a red light and the car felf fine I continued to drive with no problems. Got to my destination 200 miles away to find the brake lights (outside not dash warning light) stuck on. I had to remove the fuse to stop the battery going flat.

Are these faults related? Any thoughts guys. It's being booked into the Stealers so I'll let you know the outcome.

Thanks

Brake light switch, common fault.

Loads of info on here about the fix.
