Had a look at the rear light and have tip a small amout of water out of the light, have dryed the light unit with the missus hair dryer and also dryed all the conectors 8-)

I went for a test drive and it still comes on when I turn left but also ive noticed it happends under breaking, do preludes have break pad sencors to warn of buggerd pads?
