I removed it and cleaned all the metal contacts, this worked for about 6 months till it happened again. After that I replaced it and problem solved pernanently.
I realised the issue whilst I was cleaning the car and wiggling the boot release lever showed cause and effect with the dash lights.

after studying the wiring diagram it looks like there are relays in the rear lights which seem to keep a negative feed back upto the dash keeping the warning lights out until a bulb goes out which then causes the warning light to come on hence why you ground the white/green wire to keep the light out , so i am thinking maybe my dash cluster is faulty
success is the ability to go from one failure to the next without any loss of enthusiasm
