Rear Light Cluster wiring connector

[James28]

Somehow water has got into the connector for the driver side rear light cluster, and as a result the pins on have all rusted up, meaning the lights flash randomly and don't work properly. They had actually rusted together and had to be forced apart.

I was just wondering if Renault do the spare parts in the photo (I've cut the wiring connector off). I know its probably better to go to a scrappy but was just wondering if you could get the holder or wiring connector from renault as that would be easier?

I've tried cleaning the pins up but still no luck, is there anything else I can do?

Thanks

Cant see the pics as in work, but are you after the connection blocks?

Yea the whole bulb holder on the rear cluster I guess I need, and the actual block connector than connects the wires to it

ok, dont buy one just yet, il check my old loom im preety sure i still have the connectors, il check tonight and if i do il post them out to you free

 

[James28]

Ah that would be great Thankyou!

Another thing I jsut can't work out how water is getting into it. Its also getting into the car as well, I haven't used the car for a few weeks because it failed its MOT over this, and I looked today and found my spare wheel well had about 3cm of water in it, and it looks like it's coming in where the hole is for the wiring loom to pass through to the light. I guess the little black foam bit on the bulb holder isn't sealing properly maybe

Is there any chance I could have one of them too? (If you have one?) I managed to break one of the little pins and its a real b**ch to get a good connection without one?

Alternatively, James28 would you post me yours? I'm sure I could clean up one silver connector!

 

[James28]

Yea sure Robbos, as soon as I have a replacement.

 

[James28]

Just wondering actually how much would the parts in the photo roughly be from renault?
Its just I need them quite quickly as tax is due soon and I don't have MOT?

Wicked mate, if you dont get a replacement til friday then don't worry mate, i'll have to make my own solution, as the car is going.
