You're all going to love this.......


LP... Get an assistant to come out to your disco...

Start it...

Get them to press the brake pedal....

Go check your brake lights!

Now turn the vehicle off!

Now go into the fuse box under the dash.....
Find the fuse for your brake lights....
Replace it

Your trailer has shorted somewhere and blown a fuse under the dash...
Replace it and all shall be well in Discovery Land

Hi Tombie2,

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Might be easier than thought *fingers crossed it's just that*

I will try this after the lil man is fed and post the result.


Thank you again...

Hi Again,

Well - definately NO brakes or reversing lights! So hubby made a quick trip to autobarn for me.

I've got a question though...

The RAVE CD has an Ampere rating of 25. Where as the diagram and the fuse that's in there is marked 15.

Is the RAVE CD incorrect or is that the maximum ampere rating you can go to?


I'll replace the fuse w/ a 15 rating only because that's what's in there and update shortly...


Cheers,

Lp

YAY!

Ok - replacing the fuse worked and my lil jeddi fighter light has gone and I have my brake lights and reversing lights back!

Good to mention for any one else out there that has a D2MY 00 model...

Check the rear tail light and reversing brake light fuse and replace it as Tombie2 suggested if you happen to see the CDL light come one ONLY when you brake.


Thanks an absolute huge amount Tombie2. You are a legend!!


Cheers,

Lp

Excellent! We've all learned something.
