   New problem apeard yesterday. Changed the bulb and is working partly.
   
   No back light.
   
   Reverse light working
   
   Brake light working.
   
   Normal light does not work.
   
   Any ideas checked the board looks to be ok as getting power upto it but no power to where back light is permanently on like near side when lights turned on
   
   Could this be brake in wire and needs to be replaced as had problems with indicator light on same side and this was re-wired about 2 to 3 months ago.

   dual filament indeed it is however not working so it seems got new bulbes. However found that my loom is fooked and need replacing as rotten to bits so found the problem as all the other lights work on it just the normal light is not getting any live feed to it yet the others are working fine on it.
