The old 60 has developed problem with the brake lights and headlights. :bad-words: :bad-words:

The headlights wont switch off high beam (Could be the combonation switch on steerign column?) and the tail lights dont work but have power at the switch. Fuses and bulbs are good.

Any ideas would be awesome :)

Cheers Tom

Def sounds like a headlight/tag light stalk problem mate.

If the switch checks out ok, check out the wiring loom that runs under the steering column esp at the large blue(?) plug. My old 60 had a prob of flashing high beam at all weird and wonderful times (like as a cop car went past...). The insulation had melted and allowed several wires to short out intermittently.

Check and clean ALL your earths as well.
