Hi all,
So I've got a leaky roof in my Discovery 2 ES - I took the headlining down to take a look and bought some non-OEM sunroof seals but they didn't fit (buy cheap, buy twice!). I took out and cleaned the current seals which seemed to be in good condition anyway. The drainage system looked in good condition, but after some heavy rain it's still leaking quite a lot. More investigation needed!
Anyway - my tail lights have now stopped working. Reverse, brake, indicators are all good, but left and right the tail lights don't work. The fuses are fine (and interior lights work which are the same circuit). Looking at the cabling today, it seems to go upward towards the roof, so I'm thinking the two issues might be related.
Interestingly, if I plug the left light cluster into the right connector and vice-versa, the reverse light comes on. Not sure if this is relevant, or whether the lights work with a constant voltage with a switched earth.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar, or got ideas where to check? I was thinking if it's just a bunch of cables going from the rear to the front that water probably wouldn't affect it, unless there was a connector or suchlike along the line in the roof where it could get wet.
Thanks in advance.
