E60 Rear Light Issue

[kceire]

Guys, my cousins car is acting up at the moment.
He has an 07 520d - 163bhp version but with LCI exterior version.

His rear drivers light is showing bulb out warnings for different bulbs, he replaced all bulbs and still has the problem. The indicator also stops working at times.

Is this a common issue?
Bad earth?

Any ideas?

Check the electrical connection at the back ot the clusters the earth pin burns out not a very expensive fix iirc . I had to do it on my 08 lci .

Pins and wires are fine
Bruce Miranda's box is faulty. Get a new one.

This car is LCI from factory mick. No Bruce boxes anywhere.
