Featured Replies

Hi Everyone

Today i was informed my high level brake light was not working properly i checked it out and i've got three bulbs/LED's lit on each end and all the middle part is out. Is it a new unit or can they be fixed or maybe some other problem any help much appreciated

Cheers Everyone :thumbup:

Thought as much, better to check first than look a NOOB at the dealers. It's under warranty so i took it back this morning and they have ordered me one. So cheers you guys for your witty but spot on diagnosis :thumbup:

Hi Same happened to mine (Fabia Vrs) out of warranty so took it out and after checking every soldered joint, I discovered that the diode on the led circuit board was faulty.. It was a 4004 - a mate had a 4006, so out with the old one and fitted the 4006. perfect it works -

No more beeping from the light warning buzzer and saved about £70 - Result

Mike

I had a failed one on a fabia rvrs too. So much for leds lasting 'for the life of the car'

Absolute rubbish!

The LEDs would, it was one of the support components...............
