Check your brake lights... a blown brake lamp makes the glowplug light flash!

thanks, just checked no brake lights.

this is what this site is all about.

If both brake lights are out it could be a brake light switch failure

all three brake lights are out so it must be the switch.

Problem solved then, if its warranty then good, if your getting one yourself make sure its a purple switch, thems the modified ones.

Another result for Briskoda! :thumbup:
