Miikka-
Thanks, I've never thought of the fuse, that will definitely have to
be checked.

BTDT even got t-shirt:o)

Fuse number 13 is burnt (or I thing it's 13, fuse next to abs fuse, my
urS4 is in service). This fuse has taillights and interior lights etc.
in it, but due to complicated electrical system, somehow current finds
it way to all lights. ABS goes propably off because rear lock is in fuse
13 and it in same circuit with abs.

If it's fuse 13, there is one other sympton. Interior light don't go off
when you start engine all doors closed. It'll wait normal timeout. Fuse
will most likely burn due to dirty or damaged connectors. Check if there
has been rear-end collision.

Inform me if I was correct. I want to know if this "lights working
without fuse" is common :o)
