    no rear lights at all??

    Hi. I have got an issue on s2 where none of my rear lights indicators fog nowt is working. Is there a common plug or any other relays to check that would take them all out? Before I go pulling carpet out.... Cheers

    Light brown connector behind dashboard right next to relay carrier goes to rear lights. Also check earth points at the back.

        So from the flasher relays etc and rear lights comes straight from front without any common connectors etc. Il check earths now. The fusebox got damp previously so has little corrosion its just that nothing on rear works so thought it got to be either like a common connector or relay or possibly earth. Rear washer pump works and thats it

            Solved it. Should have taken a bit more time before posting. The connectors to the rear light clusters are badly corroded. Had one spare so changed but need another pass side one if anyone has one? Could do with a tidy pair really if there cheap

              Most are badly corroded, late model cabriolet seem to be about the best source for them.

              If they are corroded it is because of water ingress, do a search for the coupe water leak thread, it is VERY good.

                    Sorry, really meant to type late model coupe -don't know how old yours is, but mines a 1991 and were destroyed.

                    I fixed the leaks in the boot and filled the connectors with vaseline to stop it happening again, along with two good condition bulb panels, not a problem since.
