N/S Rear light cluster

[chrisga]

Hi,

My tail light on rear nearside is not working. Brake light is (same bulb) and indicator and reverse light is. Is there supposed to be a fog light on that side as well because that doesnt work either if there is? I've tried new bulbs. Is there a fuse for rear left lights? Right hand side all works fine.

Have you tried cleaning the contacts for the plug that connects the light cluster to the car loom? Sometimes the pins can corrode or get covered in material that stops them functioning correctly.

Yep, but it was absolutely freezing on Saturday so didn't spend too long on it to be fair, or even get the multimeter to check to see if it was getting power. Put it back together and just wondered if anything else obvious would be stopping it working. Went to check fuses in manual and it was very basic. MOT in a few weeks so need to get it working.
