To get at the switch unit:
1. Remove the transparent window and take out the festoon bulbs. Optionally remove the map/reading light bulbs too. 2. Lever out bus bars carefully (there are a couple of plastic lugs to push aside for the big one) If you want to lift out the PCB and switch block it's held in by the big black plastic clips either side - very easy to push them back to release, any old blunt blade should do.

Here is a picture of my rear light assembly taken out of my S8. Oh my gosh I hate rust!
I carefully pulled out the bus bars and light switch. Here is a close up picture of the light switch circuit board. Do I need to separate this green circuit board to fix the solder joints? If so, do I just carefully pry up the circuit board? Last edited by Audifan; 9th November 2020 at 10:42 PM. Reason: switched pictures to attachment |

NO! All the joints are in front of you. Just make sure they are separate from each other and resolder as needed. Some of those look less than ideal.
There is a clear short circuit bottom left for a start! I usually scrape away contamination with a sharp point and after soldering apply some nail varnish to seal (ooooh missus!)

Ah ok. I'll see if I can get my friend to help out with this as he's more experienced with type of stuff then me.

Good idea; anyone competent at soldering will tidy that up in no time!
