Ilpo Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 We now have a problem with rear lights and camera on DJ 2010 DCT All started with register plate lights not working and ~at the same time the camera stopped working. Changed the registerplate wires and pulps, got those working but the camera still dont. Then the reversing light (on right) stopped working, but at the same time the register plate lights stopped working - very much weird is that the rear light on right seems to work when the lights inside are on ? So I may have a problem with wires (short circuit?), pulps ? or shall I remove the minus cable from the battery to see if it clears the problem or what ? Will have a beer anyway dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilpo Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 1st report - the beer helped I took the minus cable off/on and started the engine - tested the camera - it worked,,, for 5s and it was blank again. Also now the left rear lights are not working - so the very weird is back again - anyone seen anything like this ? Will take 10 beer next.. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Welcome to the forum! Beer solves everything! Only thing I can think of is there has been some reports of the wiring that goes between the body and the tailgate getting damaged inside the wire loom. Might start there.

Yes. There are a couple of threads. Not sure the exact location. This new forum format is not very user friendly. You can try to use the search function.

RICW Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Open tailgate. At top left corner wiring loom goes from body to tailgate. Push back rubber accordion looking sleeve and you will likely see broken wires there. jkeaton and OhareFred 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
