Yeah, not standard. Are the other two ends that are connected to the cars loom protected with heatshrink or just the bare metal 'prong'?

Take pics tomorrow mate. Mine has a second connector, but sounds different to yours.

Not standard i dont think, can't remember what mine was now, but im sure it was both wires going into a single connector rather than individual ones. Wonder if someones had a butcher. Think the wirings often different from cup spoilers to normal spoilers so they may have had to cut and solder to...

That's brilliant, hahaha. Could've ended badly! That connector under the tape just doesn't look standard though, I'm probably wrong but looks different to mine but it's hard to tell.

They often have them at petrol station mate. Or go to the local polish and ask them if you can use their jetwash if you pay them.

On the third brake light. Going off all the electrical tape I wasn't sure if it was dodgy

Did you use a screwdriver on the connector at the back? Otherwise it just doesnt like you

What's with all the old thread bumps tonight? Disconnect your battery for 30 mins/ do the stalk reset trick.

Just push them all in. Can get easily kicked/ knocked or tend to just drop out too weirdly. Fairly common

Relays can do funny things. Just check all fuses whilst you're there. Shine a light on them from behind, it's easier.

He's not been online for nearly 2 years mate. Threads 4 years old! You probably have a misfire.

Check your relays underneath the glovebox mate. Or take out each fuse individually to see if broken.

The glovebox one only works when the headlights are on. The boot one should work regardless.

Was it beeping when you did the hold button trick? You did it correctly yeah? (No offence)

That's weird. I'd have thought it would have done something. Best bet is to check the fusing, you maybe shorted out the boot brake light or something.

I thought CC was standard on 182's? But you're true on it needing both. I just tend to think if someones paid for the additional suspension they're go for the spoiler/splitter too!

Be better if it was the automated oil filter spin button.

Easily removed though. Best check is the bolt spacing of the shocks.

If you hold the button on the end of the stalk when you turn on the ignition for the 'secret calibration menu' what does it do?

Brake lights should work regardless of the third one not being attached. Earth/fuse/relay.

Was gonna be my next shout.

It could be that when removing the spoiler you've pulled at the cabling. Remove the little grommet and have a look, or pop down the headlining although i'm not really sure what there is to see. You sure the battery is OK? You could have a look behind the bottom trim in your boot at the earths...

Very odd. I didn't have any problems myself mate! Plug your brake light back in and see if it makes a difference, what was that electrical tape hiding? Did you disconnect the neg terminal at all? Check that the earth nut on that is securely fastened. You got a picture of the connector that you...

Measure that spacing.

I realised when typing it had been repainted but wanted to eat my tea so submitted it haha.

Called it. Looks to have been off before as that electrical tape isn't normal. Was it just the normal connector underneath that?

Isn't it the same as the one in the glovebox? Swap them round for a simple test.

Just get it back for the principle more than anything. It'll easily sell if you don't want to fix it. Best of luck with everything.

Those alloys aren't a totally standard colour ;) Looked very clean though. You going to get the car back?
