, I wasnt suggesting that the front light pulse was related to the rear light cluster.

Just to put abit of closure on this, I replaced the read light unit and that is working properly now in that the top 3 rows of LEDs are lit the same as the rest, although the headlight and rear light do pulse slightly with the indicators.

Charging system and battery still seem fine though.

Passed MOT this morning so finally back on the road!

Thanks guys.
