hi guyz.

seems like I solved one problem and two days later another one arouse. I didnt do anything but replace my tails with stock ones and now my right side taillights wont work, all the lights on the the right side light upwhen I put the headlights on but when I brake and put up the right turn signal on, in the dash the turn signal blinks twice as fast and i can see the lights blink twice in the headlight but nothing on the tail light, so when I brake only the left side lights up. here is what I did so far..

1) check and replace every single fuse, ( my tails, hazards fuses were blown).

2) swap out relays

3) put new bulbs

4) try to see if anything is wrong with the wires.

id appreciate it.

thanks much
jesse

The brake and turn signal use a separate filament in the bulb. It sounds like there is not a good connection to that contact on the bulb. Check the connector contacts for corrosion, broken, etc.
 
hey.

Ive checked and replaced all the bulbs and then made sure there is no corrosion but still wont turn on. could there be anything else I am missing?
