Not today but Wednesday. Pre MOT I noticed one number-plate light was out. Thought it would just be a bulb.
No such luck. Finally prised the whole unit off and the circuit board was cracked in three places (looked like it had been off before.

Stabilised it with lots of araldite then gently rubbed the coating off the circuit where the cracks were and soldered tiny strands of wire across the gaps.

Yay. Bright lights and MOT passed :¬)
