High level brake light bulb affecting parking sensors

Hi everyone,

My parking sensors have recently been replaced as they went haywire.

All seemed ok but recently they started playing up. The garage claim that the high level brake light bulb had blwon and as such it was affecting the parking sensors.

Anyone heard of this???

Thanks

Shacs

give the theory some credence , stranger things have happened, the brake light has been known to leak water in the rain so maybe just maybe its the cause of the sensor problems Wink At work
