yup, a good scrubbing with some emery cloth and liberal amounts of wd40 on the earthing points should do the trick :thumbup:

I have given up on it gave all the earth connections a sand down and a spray of wd40 but its still not fucking working right
It is only happening on the rear bumper front is all good
I have a heavy duty rear bumper which the lights sit in and where the lights bolt on to the bumper that us where it is earthed

Plus has any body got a diagram of the religh by the fuse box

Try any old piece of wire or a jump lead to connect your bumper earth to the body and see if this helps. I've got loads of diagrams if needed :thumbup:
