Evening All, This is a further update on my non working rear tail lights... This is a photo of my light switch. http://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/album_page.php?pic_id=255166 The rear parking light wires go to two different terminals. I played around with the voltage meter and can tell you this. I get a reading of 12 volts on both sides of all fuses. With the light switch off, I tried the gray and red lead on the back of the switch. I got a reading on the meter but it bounces around. When I turn on the parking lights, I get dead zero on the meter from the same terminal. I turned on the parking lights and then tried the copper contact behind the rear parking light on each side but still got zero. I got the same results from both sides. I could understand one wire from the front to back going bad, but both??? I'm still thinking it's the switch but would appreciate any further help. What should I look at next? I'm sorry but I wont be able to get back on line tonight (starting work at 4 am stinks) But I will continue this thread tommorrow and hopefully will try any other suggestions. As always, Thanks folks!!! -- John 65 square (weezer) 04 jetta Just Cruisin By ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
