Rear light issue

Hi all,

Since few weeks, I have an issue with my rear light, in first with my turn signals and since yesterday with the brake light.

Sometime all work fine but sometime the turn signal flashs faster with a light on the dash which let me know an issue with this one.

I changed both lamp thinking to correct the problem.

I know that the trouble was known the E46 and E36.

Yesterday I tried to remove both rear block but without success the left one.

The right one was completely rusty and in spite of clean it with a specific product cleaner, there is no result.

For me there is two solutions :

- Buy new light block because the connector is fixed to it
- Change the connector and refit the harness for the left and right rear light

Someone has already met the problem ?

Have you got another idea before to modify the harness and each connector?

PS : I'm sorry if my english is not very good :-/


Thank you in advance for your feedback

Make sure to use OEM but bulbs, for some reason my E46 used to throw a dash light when using aftermarket ones.

What year is your car? The harness is different from pre-facelift and facelift.
