HELP! Wiring trouble

[Sean1]

Hi, have a few problems with my wiring I have no rear lights what so ever but the front work how they should, and also I have no dash lights other than the oil light e.g. With the indicator to the left the dash does not illuminated.
I have looked at a wiring diagram but can't seem to make heads or tails of it to be honest

Hi, i would start by taking out the fuses one by one and checking they are ok and cleaning contacts on the fuse box........with any luck this will sort out your issues. (did with mine)

Exact place to start ^^^ just like that. After that, get a test light, a homemade bulb in a holder with two wires is fine, fix one side to earth and make sure it works by trying the live to the battery. Then disconnect the wire from the rear lights and twiddle it onto your tester and see if it lights up, make sure the switch is on too :mrgreen: . From there, you'll know if the problem is after the wire so in your light unit so usually the earthing or in the feed to the light possibly a switch or a previous bodge.
