Default 2001 Sovereign - Faulty RHS Break light

Hi,

2001 Sovereign.

Just encountered a problem that I cannot solve. My right breaklight
no longer works. I've checked all items from the lamp right through
to the fuse and there is no power. There is a relay in the fusebox
in the boot but I've no way of testing it. I have been told by
another Jag owner that he has the same problem and cannot get it
fixed unless he tries the Jag dealer who has told him it may be a
faulty ''electronic control'' which could be very expensive.
I'm tempted to cut the wire from the relay to the faulty brake
light and then ''hotwire'' to the light from the working left brake
light.

Any help would be appreciated,

Dave

I suggest you post in the X308 forum which covers your car, this one is for XJS cars.
