Rear light/brake light fault

Hi,
I have a 6v dax the rear light and brake light have no power to them. The battery is less than six months old and he brake light switch is new, and I get about 6.3 volts at the battery. The stator is ok as the headlight works, any ideas?

Dave

are you getting any voltage to the light unit.try putting a new earth to the rear light metalwork

Both wires in the bulb are still intact?

yes both wires are intact, all the lights were working until last week would the orange rectifier be the problem?

Not very likely.

Have you had a go at putting another earth to the back light assy

Thanks for the tip silky anythings worth a go a this stage

Hi all,
I finally found out what was stopping the rear light from working.It was the four pin plug on the battery, one of the pins had become loose and had gone back inside the plastic plug so thats all it was in the end.
