Are these related in any way?????
The bulbs on the dash work as I've tested them, the brake light illuminates then goes out as it's connected to the ABS, but it doesn't come on for the handbrake being on, also the oil light doesn't come on with the ignition, can anyone give me some quick pointers?

Hmmm you could possibly be right, i was messing with that yesterday, the fuse holder @22 was knackered so it rewired it and left fuse 21 alone, but i know it has the same earth as fuse 22 so maybe worth having a look again tonight.

Aye maybe thats what it is.... 
I'll check it when i get home, that'll mean when i fix that i'll have 100% fixed all the wiring in the cossie, it was a total mess when i got it, so I'm pretty chuffed it's coming together at last.

Had a look at this last night, couldn't find any problems with fuse 21...
I even took out the centre arm rest and earthed the wire to the handbrake switch but to no avail...
