steering wheel lights

hi folks my lights on steering wheel flick din and bright when I turn the wheel only does it on steering wheel not the dash
I'm thinking maybe a loose connection

it will be the clock spring I expect.

Could well be a warning that other things will stop working soon, e.g horn, cruise control, airbag light on

+1 with Andy K. Highly probable it's the clock spring. Not something I'd try to replace but others here have done so successfully. Barrie.

Easy enough to replace clock spring, just make sure to disconnect battery first and leave for awhile to ensure any residual voltage etc. to dissipate. Can buy tool to release air bag for few quid or a bent metal coat hanger will suffice.

Cheers
