have a esp light on left hand tail light out and left hand head light out 

any ideas

What is a esp light?

Electronic stability control.

Silly question but are the external lights actually working on the vehicle or is it displaying false warnings?

headlight and side light on drivers side 

just sidelight on passenger

and on the rear no tail light on the passenger side

sorry lights are not switched on

The esp light came on with my Mk V Golf. It meant the ABS pump had failed. This was after 7 years and 80,000 miles. The cost of this is approx. £1300 but as the car had a full VAG service history including all brake fluid changes Volkswagen paid for it all, it is not uncommon. I would like to add this is the only issue I have had with the Golf.....

pretty sure this is electrical fault, been fitting towbar wiring kit, reconnected the battery and now have this fault

After battery disconnection my last yeti threw a selection of warning lights which went away as soon as I drove a few yards. My Leon had done the same and prepared me! In each case I'd replaced the grubby felt battery wrapping with the Mkv Golf plastic enclosure. I'm afraid your symptoms with the bulb failure lights sounds like an electrical disturbance and the fact that you've been engaged in towbar work is the likely reason.I would see if the display recovers normality with some gentle driving.though.

ok thanks ill give it a try

yes taking it for a run removes ESP light 

still got numerous faults with the lights
