I ditto the comment Dave made about the dirty lens, although you
probably have a bad ground somewhere. We were pulled over by a couple
of officers in the Orlando area a while back and the commented that
the illumination for the licence plate was supposed to be such that
it could be read from a certain number of feet away. I don't remember
the number, something like 45 feet or so... I wanted to smart off and
ask them if they had calibrated eyeballs to tell how far away they
were when they read our plate, but I didn't think they would think it
was funny. Anyway, the next day I pulled it apart and found that
there was an accumulation of dirt inside the lens! Seeing Dave's
reply below brought a chuckle to me when I remembered that occasion.

Hope its something simple.

Hugs from Houston,
