Thanks Steve, will check, but the only earth I have gone into is the rear light and that is a piggy back crimp connector - haven't connected the wire to anything else yet! O you think if this is broken circuit then this could cause the issue?

Also have I done the wiring correctly? Is it ok to take the feeds fm all three wires? Seems to be the easiest way to do it but am questioning myself now!!

Thanks
James

Here you go, all three connections go to the second row light

just make sure you connect them to the proper terminals.

Thanks will check again, that is how I have it wired aside from I am using crimps...

Hopefully I can get to the wiring without taking the head lining down again

Now to wire up the vanity mirror... Any know if it is the purple or the white/purple that has permanent live? Currently they both seem to be live?

Thanks

I'd suggest flicking the switch on the light to turn it on (with the doors shut) and see which contacts are supplying the feed to the switch in that position.
