[SOLVED] Swapped tailgate - wiring problems - Bengley - 31-01-2013
Hi there,
I swapped my tailgate over for another today, the new one is in better condition.
All was fine until I got to the wiring.
All of the wires are colour coded which helps, but no matter what combination of wires I tried, I can't get the brake lights to work (which is a bit dangerous).
The third brake light has been removed, as well as the wiring so I can't see that being the issue, but read on...
The battery light on the dash is constantly lit since doing this.
When I put my foot on the brake, I can hear a relay clicking, the battery light gets brighter, then I release the brake pedal and the relay clicks off and the battery light returns to dim.
Also, the clock on the centre console has gone dim.
I must have connected a wire wrong somewhere, but I can't work out which!
Any advice?
Solved - Fuse 28 blown.

A soon as I saw your battery light was on I knew it would be fuse 28. Does this when the rear wiper relay shorts out, that fuse runs lots of stuff too.
