Hi ,
my check panel keeps coming up with " brake lights",
I ve checked that both rear brake light s are working ok , i took the bulbs out and cleaned them up any way , but the brake lights keeps coming up , is there any common faults to chck over ,
any idears ?????

thanks

First, try 2 new good quality bulbs, and then suspect the brake light switch and/or the adjustment of the brake linkage pull rod that goes across the car in front of the heater.

Does the light stay on all the time?

Thanks Brian , will try your suggestions,
No the light comes up some times , but not all the time , has nt done it at all today ?

For info to all , i tried every thing
but it was a faulty brake like light b switch, it was working ie bring on the rea brake lights ok , but was not reseting the check panel light ???
swoppped for another and its all ok now

thanks all

If the brake switch doesn't work cleanly it will light the chack panel.

Thanks as all ways Brian

Single point. Multi point is a bit OTT for a M20.
M50B25 engined touring will get a multi point system I have here ready when I get the time though.
