Firstly my indicators have cut out (again) I've checked the fuses and i cant see any that have blown so im pretty much stumped on that one.

Second one, is the rear lights when i have my main lights on, they aren't turning on but my brake lights and reverse lights are working fine. Also tried to see if the fuses are blown with these too but A) I cant find what fuses are connected to them and B) all the fuses i have checked arent blown.

Also if anyone could let me know which fuse is the light fuse!?

The indicators i can deal with for the moment as ive dealt with not having them before but the back lights, im getting driven insane with people flashing me! ive gotten to the point where i just pull over!!

have you got dash illumination lights? As these are linked to the rear s/lights. If the dash lights arent on there is definately a bad fuse.

Actually no there arent dash lights i forgot to mention this one but the lights come on the dash when i have full beam on and when i start the car other than that nothing.

this happened to me yeterday. No rear lights, no dash lights.

I checked the fuses, none of them were blow, so I started to feel arround the fuse box where the wires connect and found that one near the top had come off a bit, pushed it all the way home and everything worked fine.

so check the connections to the fuse box, you may be lucky too.

I already replaced one fuse box but ive got to check the fuses behind the air filter. the guy before me was not too clever with wiring!
