Hi. I have just completed my winter service,which included a valve clearance check, and on putting the wiring plugs back toghether the side lights dont work. I have a headlight and the indicators all work ok and the horn works but no side lights. I thought i had missed an Earth connection but i have had a good look but cant find anything.
Has anyone got any idea`s as it is beggining to warm up in the UK and LeMans is only 5 weeks away.
Cheers
Gary

Yes, those plugs are getting pretty old by now, probably lots of corrosion!
Take them apart & reinsert them a few times, or better yet some electrical contact cleaner if you have some.

Fixed it.
Turns out to be the switch. A £20 purchase from Ebay and the problem is sorted.
Thanks for your ideas
