Check for what the previous guys said. Also, if you open the valve at the calipers and you should compress the piston back in with some effort but seems blocked (the mechanic had to push it to put new brakes in, right?) it could be your master cylinder that is not allowing the fluid to come back, therefore it locks the brakes. I have a set of calipers on my 94 Pontiac Grand Prix. The rear ones need it a special tool that screwed the piston back in. It was not supposed to be pushed in with a C Clamp. I broke it out of pure ignorance. Had to replace both. What I am getting with this is, that your brakes could have some similar and might be damaged by improper technique. See if you can find the way to read on how to do a brake job, might be some hidden trick that we are not aware of. If you have ABS, see if there is a special reset that needs to be done after a brake job. Could be also as simple as having the wrong parts. Well all might sound odd but do not leave a rock unturned, might be a simple thing.

Use your femenine charms and get the guy in the shop to fit it. Saxo's are prone to water around the bulbs as is the peugeot 106. My friend has a saxo and the garage man told her. Maybe thats why youre having probs. good luck anyway

Your owner's manual should be able to assist.
If not, buy a Haynes manual.

If you just need to know what sort of bulb you need for each lamp, anywhere that sells car bulbs will have a guide that says what sort of bulb you need for every light in the car - Halfords have a little laminated booklet attached to their displays, smaller motor factors, or more trade-focused outlets such as Partco, will be able to look it up for you.

If your lamps are stot/tail combined you will be looking for a 12volt 21/5 watt SBC (double contact). Be carefull in fitting as the pins on the bulb are offset.
If your lamps are indivdal lamps stop bulb 12 volt 21 watt SCC (single contact), tail bulb 12 volt 5 watt SCC (single contact).

There are two ways of making sure. either go to your nearest Citroen dealership and pay a visit to the parts department or remove the bulb and take it to your nearest spares stockist or someone like Halfords and get them to match it up.

One of the posters is right though, the citroen bulbs have offset pins so that will only go in the one way.

sidelights are 5 watts single filament (also indicators) stop and tail lights are 5/20 watts with a twin filament. (they are steppped so you can't put them in upside down. access is inside the car, from the back of the lamp units rotate anticlockwise (loosy left)
