Good to see you have her back were she should be Kara. Lets all hope for a long hot and DRY summer.

Well I've just got back from picking slave up... nipped home to take the hard top off then went for a nice long drive with the hood down! All I can say is wow! Can't believe I ever considered getting rid of her!!! She drove beautifully! I'm totally in love! :lol:

Couple of things that need sorting but nothing major... Gotta get a replacement side vent as it blew out when steve was driving her! :lol:
Also the brake lights don't seem to be working... The rear lights & indicators work fine but the brake lights & mid level brake light won't come on. Any ideas? I'm thinking fuse or loose connection?

Well no matter what I'm just over the moon to have her back!

isnt the light problem normally the wire loom wearing thru by the boot hinge??

Lol well it was raining earlier so I just put a hat on and kept the hood down! :lol: Although would be nice to take her out when the sun is shining!

ok so I've checked the brake plunger/switch, checked the fuse, and wiring but can't find anything that would be causing the brake lights not to work... Anyone got any more ideas?

Well done for getting Slave1 back, can I still have your bonnet and boot:whistle:

:lol: only if I can have your meerkat!

Have you checked the bulbs?

Lol yes was the first thing I checked! :lol:

You need to trace the wiring from the brake switch to the bulb holder see if you have 12v when the pedal is depressed.
I suspect you will find a break in the wiring, (possibly at the boot hinge?)
