Might be a bad earth, might just need to increase revs a little so there is more power from the alternator. Is this with headlight on?

I cant turn my headlights off. After a bit of research it looks like a fault wih K3 and K4 resistors in the tail light. I have only noticed it since i put on aftermarket indicators. Damn !!

Yeah, they all end up going a bit and there is a fix, swapping out some resistors. I have some new ones to do mine, but until it is really bad, I cannot be bothered to sort it out! No one has mentioned it on any MOT so far and I have a K3 that has go dimming tail lights up top.
