    Electrical gremlin

    We recently had the bullbar and driving lights replaced after an accident. Our issue is, no left side (passenger's side) front parking light, no left rear tail and parking light and no reversing lights on both sides. Our Disco has a Kaymar rear bar and ARB Bullbar.

    Is this one of those issues where certain lights are linked, and where if one light is not working it effects the others?
    Cheers Baz.

    Is the D4 like the D3 with a set of fuses inside the tailgate on the left hand side behind a removable trim panel? The D3 has a 5A fuse for each side tail lights.

    Quite possibly. The D3 has Graeme's Fuse 25 10A Lighting in the engine bay not in the passenger fuse panel.

    Yeah, fuse 25 10A in the D4 is in the passenger side behind the glovebox, and it was blown, so hopefully that is the problem.
    Cheers Baz.

    Unlikely. More like a symptom. Fuses rarely fail all by themselves. More likely to be a short or bad connection due to the work done on the bullbar or wheel carrier. Should be quite straightforward to check the wiring.

    Yes, it's the first fuse failure in 12yrs, well basically from new, it should be in the bullbar as no work was done on the rear of the car.
