Oi! Not so fast! Loose wires on fuse boxes can be a symptom of something more serious!

Presuming you have the S2 fuse box behind the passengers shin bin / glove box? Check to make sure all your fuses are 32mm long and not 30mm long. Doesn't sound a big difference, but it makes the difference between the fuse box living and dying! With 30mm fuses, there is a tendency for the terminals to overheat, then the plastic goes soft, then the fuse clips open up, wires come loose etc, all the way to a full blown fire.

I recommend checking all the fuse lengths and just nipping up the clip blades!

You seem to have this sorted but just as an exercise check the bulb holders, they can get a little slack meaning intermittent lights (depending on how fast you go over speed bumps) :D
 
Was going to replace the complete lamp holders but i'm stunned at the price £125.00 youd have thought there would have been a pattern part available by now. awesome repair though care of carlsberg probly the best larger in the world :LOL:
