Hi
Just looking for a bit of advice
The drivers side rear light cluster turns itself off if I indicate. Not ideal! I've taken it apart and the bulb holder had a burnt pin. Bought a new bulb holder but have the same issue. I've now looked at the plug connector and it's cracked and it looks like it's burnt out. How easy is it to replace the connector? Is it just a case of pulling the wires out and pushing them into the new one or is it more complicated than that? Any help would be gratefully received!

Hi
replacing the connector is not too difficult, just a case of cut, strip and crimp.
The C3 rear cluster plug/socket burning is quite common and there is a modification to fix that. So you may also want to include the modification while you are replacing the plug.
