Swisstony Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I seem to have an issue with the reading lights front and back none of them work and when I took them out they were sparking ! never seen ones like this before It seems to have left behind a round metal tube are they the same in the rear ? me thinks previous owner did one of those ultra bright kit upgrade and it has buggered it up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Rob Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 those are led items, most certainly not factory fit. Another area that gets changed and in a lot of cases it goes wrong big time with over heating and shorting out. you need to get anything thats left in the bulb holders out and start a fresh, check the fuse that covers them too as it can get swapped for something with a higher load and that is not good.

Swisstony Posted September 3, 2022 Author Share Posted September 3, 2022 Cheers guess the fuses are in the left hand side like Porsche in the dash ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swisstony Posted September 4, 2022 Author Share Posted September 4, 2022 Thanks Rob. I will pick out those broken bulbs and replace them with the correct ones and check this hasnt been done in the rear lights. and check the fuse just in case. I made the mistake of doing something similar on our porsche cayenne in a moment of madness , replaced all the factory bulbs with nice shiny LED ones and loads of flickered and blew so back to factory they went. You live and learn 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
