I have a 1997 328i coupe. The rear lights have clear indicators. Last year the back window was smashed and it filled with water so it has been recommissioned. Passed the mot fine but a couple days later there were no brake lights or back indicators/hazards. Fuses, switches etc are all fine. On the near side cluster there was a bodge job connecting A little relay that did nothing but seemed like it was to attempt to wire in the spoiler brake light. This was soldered onto original wiring. I've cut that out and reattached the original wires so they go as they should. Still I have no joy. It's not the earthing as the reverse, fog and side lights still work and they share earth. Using the multi meter the indicators show between 0 and 0.3 in time with the hazards so something must be coming through to them. I'm running out of ideas and after all my hard work of decommissioning really don't want to get beat by a few niggles. Can anybody give me any pointers of what to try next?! Thank you in advance. Lauren
