hi, this morning, i notice my car brake light is not turn off even after i matikan the car engine.
and notice there are some plastic thing broke in my carpet. then i went to this bengkel, and they put something like a layer of plastic and some double sided tape and the light now can turn off. but is this long term solution? just double side tape? how is it work? |

QUOTE(SonnyCooL @ Dec 18 2012, 12:25 AM) that called short circuit so i can just rileks now? im afraid it will rosak lagi in the middle of the night, then battery all kong... yah black tape is good enough Added on December 18, 2012, 12:28 am QUOTE(kira_mha @ Dec 18 2012, 12:25 AM) go to spare part shop, order from them the bengkel i went, they said this thing cannot order, maybe i try different bengkel....or go SC SC should be ok kan... agak2 mahal tak? Added on December 18, 2012, 12:31 am QUOTE(drewn123 @ Dec 18 2012, 12:25 AM) the reason why is becuz the plastic holder to hold the switch to activate the brake lamp ald break into pieces due to usage (it's normal) so i guess his solution with the double sided tape is legit lah?A better and cheaper solution is to replace them with metal spacers instead of buying a new OEM part since it will break down later i afraid cannot hold, or if the adhesive wear of, might turn on the light again...

QUOTE(drewn123 @ Dec 18 2012, 12:33 AM) probably better to fix it when u can since u are not feeling easy with it. its like double sided tape, and they use some thick paper (like the box one)... so it become a bit thick....I'm also puzzled that the person fix it using double sided tape since it's not really a long term solution. but yes, im not feeling easy, if battery kong, lagi sakit.... |
