Hey everyone, i was going over the zook the other day and was going to replace my left brake light but it has smashed and is now stuck in there..
then i started up her up around 30 minutes after wards and herd a click, now when i put my foot on the brake my high beam light comes up? I also have no brake, blinker or rear parker lights and no front parkers and blinkers but i still have front lights.
Thought it must be a fuse so i checked them but they all look fine. was wondering if it could be because of water getting into the fuse box because i always have water leaking through there when it rains onto my feet.
If anyone could help would be great otherwise i have to spend money to get someone to look at it... cheers guys.

another variation is you turn the lights on and you get high beam until you turn the high beam on and you get nothing
most electrical things dont stump me but from looking at the wiring diagrams I am buggered if I can figure out how 1 circuit not having power on it can effect another one so massively

When my tail/brake fuse went after a water crossing, it took the stereo with it, and the clock only worked with the accessories on, meaning every time you took the keys out, the clock reset. Bizzare...

the fun of loops
I had a dodgy relay for my lights which when trying to hibeam it would take out the stereo/cb breaker as well which is on another circuit...

i re wired all my head lights checked and replaced every fuse to get my head lights to work, then realised that both head lights were blown.... as with all elec problems it will be something simple you overlooked.... just start replacing bulbs....

You're forgetting, you're talking about Suzuki wiring here.
If you heard a click, I'd be checking the fuses also, but if you are definatly sure they are alright, look around the smashed area for a bad earth.
