was messing around with the trailer today at home and realised that when pressing the brake pedal in the car, the brake lights did not work on the trailer and it turned off the tail lights and side markers on one side. i took the cover off the trailers rear cluster and half cleaned the lamp (double filament) terminals as well as the contacts. i wedged the brake pedal on in the car and re fit the lamp and everything worked ok. i then took the lamp out again and properly cleaned the contacts but on replacing it i must have shorted something out and lost brake lights and side lights + markers.
checked the fuse box in the boot and there was a 15a fuse blown so i replaced it and brake lights now ok. but i cant seem to locate the fuse for the rear tail lights.
does anyone know where its located? car is 2002 s60 d5 .cheers

ive seen them and still cant work out which one it could be! not sure if im reading it correct but no mention of tail lights. i assumed that as the lights run all the time that they may be fed into the front lighting circuit but the fuses indicate a left/right split and not front/back. ill need to take a look today as ive not checked the box in the passenger compartment

sorted. fuse 30 in cockpit fuse box. thanks all!
