Hi, not directly window cleaning related but hoping for some help from the clever chaps on here. Mot is due tomorrow and I'm getting little things sorted out but I'm having a strange problem with a reverse light bulb. I replaced the bulb with a new one as it didn't light up but it still didn't work. I've tested the bulb and it works (tried several new ones as well). I've tested the socket with a meter and get 11.8v. To rule out potential bad connection on the socket I've put 2 wires directly into the correct pins on the connector and tried the bulb- still nothing.
If I monitor the voltage, it stays at 11.8v until the bulb is in the circuit- and then it drops to 0v. Then I remove the bulb and it goes back up to 11.8v.
Any ideas what may be going on?
