Hi Pack V8,
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately there has been no work done on the lighting system. I was just getting the car ready for it's annual government safety check and found the bulb blown. As you probably aware the bulbs are getting very rare and expensive, so I can't afford for anything to go wrong. I decided to check out things first with a test lamp and meter but my electrical diagnostic skills are not that brilliant and also working on old American systems with old cables. You can guess.

Now on to Tim,

Yes Tim you are spot on with the left hand bus bar. In there are three wires and when checking with the test lamp and meter in all the switch positions I only get one lead with current. With the meter I get two cables going to ground. I don't think that is correct. Can you confirm this?

Thanks everyone for your replies,

Terry
