    Hello
    First time posting and not great with cars. Got a lovely golf last month which has an issue that the garage I bought it from hasnt yet been able to solve. I am getting the reverse light defective rear fog light defective error. Boot works fine. no other issues. It has been in twice, the auto electrician repaired the wires in loom near hinge through solder and changed bulb and made sure they work manually, but whatever try cannot get error to disappear and hence these 2 lights will not work. He suggested that the main module needed changing but the replacement was from ebay apparently and has done the same thing when replaced. He is adamant that is the problem and is now ordering another one (hopefully not off ebay)... any other suggestions as to what can be???
    thanks

    trace the boot wiring back through the c pillar and you will find another connector. check this for corrosion.

    It may have silly boy racer bulbs fitted, these require recoding of the computer that controls them.
