Think you have a side light out matey

1. where can i get one, anywhere? just popped out for a look now and yep its the front left, what a pain considering when i brought it (wait for it) it needed a new flywheel so had the clutch and slave done too.
2. didnt use the lights when i went out so im just wondering could it have gone without being used/turned on?

i thank you for your help,
3. will the infostation tell me of majority of problems?

I've had the same problem for a while now,all my lights are working.With minee it just happens when the car is moving along,when the car is stationery are when the lights are turned on it goes away.

Its a bulb, they can blow at anytime. About £1.50 for two.

If it thinks you have one out it will use your indicator in its place - albeit at a lower wattage.

Also if it gives you a warning that its blown and you check it but its still working, it will fail shortly.
