Time for an update. Told the dealer the full story, but they don't have an auto sparky on their books so they steered me to a company they hire to perform diagnostics of this nature.
They came out and confirmed the fault but couldn't fix it as the bumpa bar had to be removed as this is where the connections were.
Drove the car to Jeep and they removed the bumpa bar and found a bad wiring connection. This was fixed and they sent me home.
Got home, tested it and it didn't work again.
I bought some led bulbs, fitted them and re-tested and it worked perfectly. Definitely a load issue on the vehicle side.
Took it back to jeep to FIX the problem. They spent hours and couldn't find the fault. They ended up fitting a relay to the brake wire which resolved the problem.
Am I happy about the fix, well not really. The underlying issue is not resolved, they just bypassed the issue and potentially adding another problem down the track.
