    I wonder if anyone has any ideas about a problem I'm having with a Peugeot
    106. Some of the lights on the car have started to malfunction.



    1. Part of the dashboard does not light up, but the headlights and the area
    near the speedometer etc id fine. When I break, the rest of the dashboard
    lights up whilst I have the break on, the moment I release the lights go
    off..



    But wait, there's more.



    2. If I have start the indicator, the rate of the on-off on the indicator is
    normal, but when I break it flicks rapidly until I take my foot off the
    break.



    I friend of mine said it was the relay and we replaced it, but that didn't
    do anything. I have checked all the fuses and they all seem O.K. Does anyone
    have any ideas before I get mugged at a garage?

    check all the rear light bulbs are fitted correctly and in the right places
    also check the rear lights earth

    My guess is one of the brake bulbs has shorted out inside the bulb OR
    one of the printed circuits of the rear lights has corroded. Try
    disconnecting the light units in turn and then try the dash lights or
    indicators. Whichever one cures the problem check the printed circuit
    for corrosion and look at the bulbs. Is there any sign of water in the
    light units?
