Front or rear sidelights? Or both?

both, my reverse light went months ago. my lights wouldn't turn off 1 night they kept flickering and the next day i just had my front lights but no side lights or back lights or number plait lights. my break lights work and so do my fog lights.

Disconnect the battery negative lead, remove the rear trim to expose the wiring from the rear clusters (take them off too). Then trace the wiring back to any bolt on the chassis. Check that all the connections are not corroded. Put it all back together (this should not take more than 30 minutes), then reconnect the battery and see if it works.

You have checked the bulbs I assume?

Also, what car do you have?
Silver 08 plate 5dr 1.5dci Dynamique 106 Tech Run (re-mapped)

Red 03 plate 5dr 1.9 Dynamique dci120

Best advice for Megane owners: sell it before it bankrupts you!
