Car Forum / Alfa Romeo Cars / October 2004155 reverse and fog light
Hi, I've just changed the bulbs of the reverse lights and fog lights, but the lights still doesn't work. So I guess either it's the sockets or the wiring. (I just wondered if this is a typical issue, before I start looking with my voltmeter) Does anyone have any suggestions/tips where to start searching? The car is a 1994 Alfa 155 2.0 Thank you, Christian, Denmark Unusual for both to fail. Common earth????

Common earth???? Well, when I switch on the fog lights, there's only 0.36V in the jack connected to the socket, and 0V when I put the car in the reverse gear. So, I think I got a quest now: Finding the bad connection. Does anyone know if the wires from the jack is long wires all the way up front? Where can I find a wiring diagram of an 1994 Alfa 155?

Yeah the fuses seems to be okay. Christian Christian. I had trouble with my reversing lights, the bulbs were OK but they kept going out. Its a 146ti 1996 and it has a plastic bulb holder, I found you could strip them right down and give them a good cleaning. It worked for me, hope you have the same result. Bill Jackson > Christian.

I measured the voltage on the reverse light jack at the socket, and it measured 0V. A mechanic told me it could be the reverse light switch. I'm going to the garage on tuesday to change the cooler so I'll tell them to have a look at the reverse lights too. Christian |
