My bulb warning light has started flashing periodically as I brake, all brake lights are functioning, any ideas?

Chances are there's a furry connection on a bulb somewhere. If it's not coming on with the brakes, that's 2 bulbs to rule out.. Check things like headlight wiring and indicator bulbs. Taking the bulb out and refitting is usually enough.

My bulb warning is on all the time now, I just ignore it. So much for Canbus HID kits......... :hbomb:

Canbus HID kits are a con. I've been saying that for years. It's cheaper, easier and guaranteed to work without warnings if you simply fit a 50W load resistor across the power supply to the ballast.

I'll have to have a root round, it flickers just as I brake, brake lights all working. I'll check all connections and maybe change the brake switch.

It'll be a furry bulb or at worst, a bulb on it's way out.
