Here's a good one. Our 300tdi 110 has an interesting electrical fault.
When you put press the brake pedal, the headlights ( and side lights) glow dimly.
Its obviously a short somewhere but has an anyone seen this before as its going to be a sod to find.
Ta in advance.
 
Check yer wires where they go into and out o' the chassis. They might've rubbed through at these points.. or rubbed on summit inside. Check the earths at yer lights anaw;)
 
I saw something similar once when a normal single filament bulb was used instead of the two filament bulb required, easy mistake to do quick to check and dismiss.
 
just to clarify i would check both brake bulbs are the correct ones. two screws each side and five minutes. simples
