Title: Bulb error??
Post by: suave on February 04, 2012, 02:19:25 pm

Guys

I've now had two occurances of a bulb warning "defective" displayed and the little pilot type bulb beside the front side light has gone out.

However on both occasions it's come back on some I'm thinking it's not the bulb. Frosty in Belfast y'day so could it be the weather or do I need a fix?

Cheers

I had similar with a rear bulb recently, but about a week layer the defective light stayed on. Replacing the bulb fixed it  :happy2:

I have the orange blub light come on the dash on cold mornings. I just turn the ignition off and back on the that seems to fix it.

Might be worth double checking the bulb is seated ok but more than likely it could be the bulb on its way out dying a slow and painful death not wanting to give up  :signLOL:
