I am new to a 1990 200 TDI.
Driving home yesterday in front of a buddy who informed me that my brake lights were not working.
The lights do turn on when I put on my parking or headlights but not do not get brighter when I put on the brake.
Cursory look at the connections and all looks ok.
The truck came from Italy but through the UK and had passed the UK road safety test before I got it so I assume they were working at that time -
I have no idea when they stopped working or if they were ever working when I got it
When I received it back in Oct, I had to replace the slave cylinder/MC.
While doing this I did break the connection onto the brake booster but recognized it and fixed it though again never actually had someone check to see if the brake lights were coming on
I then drove it to a local rover shop and had them do some work for me - they did replace rear brake cylinders among other things.
It is driving great and now I am frustrated that the brake lights are keeping me from driving it
Could it still be a bulb issue? I have checked fuses and they are ok
Any tips on trouble-shooting this?
Thanks
