Bulb Warning Light on Dash

Post by gaza1994 »

Hi All,
So recently when i've been starting the car i've been getting the Bulb Warning Light showing up on the dash.

At first i walked around the car and all the lights where working fine. Stopped the car, started it again and the dash light was gone!

Yesterday the light popped back on - only this time the rear drivers side tail light went out, stopped the car, started it, light was still dead!

Started the car this morning, no warning light and the light is working fine!

Any ideas as to what it could be?

Edit: Changed the bulb - all seems ok now :)

Maybe a poor connection between the bulb and bulb holder? If so, try taking the bulb out and re-fitting it. If warning light comes back on or the bulb goes out, try replacing the bulb.
