Electrical problem?

  1. #1
    Hi, i am new to this site so please be patient . I have a Saxo VTR thats 11 years old. In the past week or so, the reversing lights have stopped working. I took it to get the bulbs changed, to be told it wasnt the bulbs or the fuse and probably something electrical. The clock has started to reset itself to 0000 upon starting the engine as well. Before i take it to some rip off merchant i just wondered if this is a common problem or i can fix it. I am not to confident with doing repairs but i have a friend who is a little more competent. I did have the ignition replaced around 3 months ago when the key got stuck in it and wouldnt turn off or on, dunno if this is connected? If you can help in anyway please let me know. Cheers Lizzie

    the reversing light switch is on top of the gear box just under the battery unplug it and connect the two wires if the lights come on theres the problem.
    Idont think them lights are on the mot if thats what your bothered about.
