When I have my lights off, and press the brakes, everything works fine, apart from a warning light in the dash saying a bulb has blown. But all bulbs appear to be ok (apart from one back fog light not working just noticed)
But when I turn my lights on while driving, all the brake lights come on and stay on, and i lose power momentarily, and the brake light warning bulb comes on with a loud bleep. This warning repeats about every 30 seconds, it's darn annoying! Also when I press my brake peddle while in this state, my brake lights and tail lights just get a just a little brighter. ?? Can anyone work this one out???
And the car seems to be operating at less power too when this happens, until I put my foot right down - then it takes off after a short lull!
NOW the background, I have recently taken out the old sat nave and CD unit from the back of the car, as I'd had a new pioneer unit installed. Could this in any way have caused an internal computer error? Vagcom needed to recode something? As I'd also tapped a wire into the reverse light cluster at the back for my rearview camera. But even when I disconnect this it still happens exactly as above! Scratching my head on this one, can anyone throw any light (excuse the pun) on this one????
Any help appreciated greatly! As I'm in the dark on this one, oh no, another pun!
