Is this wiring on my Picasso rear lights correct?

Post by Jshodgson »

I have just had to change both brake bulbs on my 2002 HDi Picasso and found that the wiring on the passenger side has a mass of insulation tape and what looks like a buzzer (small black box) hanging off it. Does this sound right? If not what could it be and could it be the cause of both bulbs blowing? I have just bought the car and don't know how long the bulbs have been blown for.
Thanks

Could be the annoying beeper for the reverse assist that dealers can fit?

If you have a trailer plugged into the towbar electrics, it should buzz when the indicators are operating?

Many thanks, I thought it may be an annoying reversing buzzer but it doesn't work if it is!! The car does have a tow bar so perhaps that is what it is for.
Many thanks.
