Sounds like your relay went out. I'd check that first.

It could be a minor problem,...... like crud build up between the button and the contact point on the circuit board - Or it could be a bit more of a problem, like a bad light module.


I'm really not sure the best way to test the car in order to see which is faulty......... If I find some info I'll post it in here for ya'.

I can't see why installing new lamps would cause a bug in the system ------
