In addition, with the headlight switch set to sidelights, I notice that the MG7 nearside tail light, and the corresponding front sidelight (LED) are much dimmer then the drivers side ones, plus, the brake light on the nearside rear is on, this is without the ignition on. Also, I notice that the screen of my DIN / Sat Nav is not a constant brightness, and is fluctuating.

I am unable to find any damp / water ingress, I've checked the BCU, and the boot... I am lost! Could it be the light control module, am I overlooking something really simple? I'm hoping one of the electrical wizzes can point me in the right direction....

Thanks & regards Phil
I had funny things happen with my lights when my FBH K bus wire was brushing against something. Check if you have a fuel burning heater, and if you do, disconnect it, the 2 pin plug first then the 6 pin.

If you dont have one the. Check in the battery compartment where you should finds its loom coiled up, and check if it is clean and dry.
