keen 6 Report post Posted August 4, 2010 can someone tell me how or what to check to fix reverse lights which are intermittent in operation? And the fuel gauge is still sitting on full and not coming down. I always fill the tank right up at each refuelling and for some reason this time its stayed there.

Shady 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2010 My fuel gauge sometimes flicks up to full when I go over bumps (I never fill it up though) and it stays there. I simply bang the speedo and it will go back down. As for the brake lights, no idea--but you could unplug them? Mine dont work & have passed 3 wofs so far.

antil33t 90 Report post Posted August 27, 2010 Reversing lights aren't a WOF requirement, unless only one goes or some BS like that... ask Glenn Is the car automatic or manual? check the connection around the transmission selector, I think that's where the switch wires are. As for the Gauges... pull the cluster out and tighten up the brass nut on the back, it's the earth for it. (even give the nut a sand down or something like that) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its a bit of a cockup realy because half the AVI's don't know their cars. Alot of the cars now come out with one fog light on the R/H side & one reverse light on the L/H side.
