[ROVERNET - UK] Rear brake lights and hazards

[Paul Smith]

ok...
There are 2 flash units on 3500s.
One does indicators, one does hazards.
It sounds like the wiring is wrong between them (just what you wanted to hear).
On Sat I can digital photograph the wiring at the backend, and under the dash, and around the flashers.

Hi .......

          In answer to Eric's post ........my car does not have the floor 
mounted dipswitch.........And the steering mcolumn mounted one doesn't work 
the lights either but even though new does seem to have andiscerable click 
to it when moved upp so i'm thinking its no good.........As for the brake 
lights........i've played with different combinations with the wires but no 
success.......When i bought the car it didn't have tail or signal lights but 
the brake lights worked....the wiring was all wrong and the lights were all 
pigtailed and spliced together............i've put in new front and rear 
lights but the wires i've had to figure out myself...........I can't read a 
wiring diagram and electrics are not my forte as you can all 
see...........The flasher unit was also ripped out of the panel so i put a 
new one in but it only works the driver side of the car............I'm 
hoping someone can just tell me colour codes to look for and what they do to 
get the brake lights and hazards working........If not here i'll take it to 
a shop and have them look at it...........THis car was redone in 1995 but 
nothing is as it seems..........and most was done wrong
