Many thanks for all your replies - hopefully the next time I post some pictures, I will get it right!

I now have to admit to eating some humble pie - I followed your suggestions and checked for wiring continuity and 12v connection - all checked out. I also checked that the alternator was earthed properly - but still no working light. Finally I thought I should check the bulb.... :oops: It had blown! I put in a new bulb and now all works as it should.

Moral - check the obvious first!

Well at least it's fixed and you probably gained some knowledge on the way. So happy ending :D
Regards Bill
