Tuscan side light fault

[andypg]

My side lights back and front do not work,also number plate light. The fuses look ok, any ideas what next to check? Thanks.

Are you sure you have checked all the fuses ? There are 4 fuses for side lamps.

Fuse 2
Fuse 5
Fuse 40
Fuse 41

Also a relay. When mine stopped working fuse 5 failed. This was due to a dodgy connection on the n/s front side lamp. If the fuses and relay is ok. Then the dash binnicle could be at fault.

Could also be worth giving the big loom behind the pod a waggle in case of loose connection - load of wires wrapped together going a multiplug on the back of the pod.

I didn,t realise there were 4 fuses. I checked 40 41 and the side light relay. When i turn the light toggle the side light relay does not click. The dip beam relay clicks when tuning the toggle again. I swapped these 2 relays to see if it was a faulty relay and they both work. I'll check the other fuses tommorow and have a wiggle behind the dash. Will update then.

Just a little update. Have checked all fuses,relays,pulled the multi plug on the back of dash off/on again. There is also a ribbon going from the back of light toggle to electrical board which i have checked with multi meter ,also ok. Is there anything else to check before i admit defeat and book in with a tvr garage. Thanks
