hey guys, got a issue with my s13 sil..
only happened last week and cannot seem to resolve it.
when you press the foot brake all the brake lights light up but quite dull and the dash cluster lights up dull as well (this is when the parkers off)
then you turn the parker or headlights on and only the dash cluster lights up, and the rear brake light (inside the rear window) stays permanently on.
first thing i checked was all the fuses, no luck.
then i checked for broken wires in the boot (the number plate light as well as i read its a common occurrence) with no luck.
checked the wires under the steering column and dash but couldn't find anything there either?

so im after any tips or help you may have?
cheers, Matt
