Anyway not to worry seems that the garage that replaced the lamp just before I purchased it joined the two cables together (why I don't know) and did a terrible solder repair right in the middle of the rubber housing between the tailgate and car which had come apart.

Off to shops to get some new wire and hopefully can pull it through and re solder where it does NOT flex. Idiots, and they were a so called prestige repair shop down in Victoria.
You may pay top dollar at some of these places for repairs but it does not mean you'll get their top guy on little repair jobs. The former grease monkey/lot boy has to start somewhere in the shop on his rise to being a fully fledged mechanic. Let's hope some fail and rise only to the level they can be competent at. But don't hold your breath on that happening.
