3rd brake light.

[Mack182]

Recently found out my 3rd brake light has stopped working it's says it's a sensor but wouldn't the sensor do all 3 brake light not have a separate one for the spoiler one ? Is this common or is there a easy way over it ?
Cheers in advance Dan

Connectors are a bit dodgy on the cup spoilers i found, try taking the light unit out and giving the connector a wiggle and clean up

 

[Mack182]

U mean the connector ? Can the bulb be changed ?

 

[Mack182]

How do u change the bulb ?

 

[jenic]

The whole light unit prises out, use a wall paper scraper, thats what i used

A screwdriver will just damage the spoiler

Ok mate I'll give it a try.

Yep, mine actually failed, i was going to fix it as mine had water ingress wich had damaged some resistors etc, but iirc they are about £20 for a new unit, so i just bought a new one!
