One Dim Stop Light was created by Tadpole

So my first 'Vitara' question although it could be any motor.

I have been told my off side break light is not as 'bright as the other.
I have removed & cleaned the lamp & holder connections making sure there is good contact without any noticeable change.
Any ideas please guys ... :unsure:

Is the bulb a wedge type stop and tail? Has somebody put it in the wrong way round. Dim brake and bright rear?

Just a thought.

Off set pins so should be ok but I'll check when I replace the bulb, although the present one looks fine.
A bit of investigation time today ...

As the weather was rather inclement my way today it was 'garage time' ... :whistle:

I removed the rear light cluster, same setup as the Jimny, replaced the bulb & ..... bingo job done works a treat.
I also set to & replaced the 'Beep Beep' twin horns for something more appropriate for such a car ... :lol:

A parcel arrived marked Suzuki so it must be for the GV ..... I'll get some pics when fitted .......
