2G Third brake light on the tail not working

[Lou D]

I need big time help guys any ideas or concept how to get that light working again? I look silly with that light not working

Did you check to make sure it's still plugged in? Have you had someone test the wires for power as you step on the brake pedal?

 

[Lou D]

The wiring was fine the last time I tested them I will go back and check. As for the plug in I will check this weekend it comes out of storage and take the panel off to see whats going on there.
Thanks Black'98 .....

Pull the bulb(s) and check inside the socket to see if the contacts are burnt.

Thanks TK I will look at that too

What car is this on? Some models have LED & some use incandescent bulb for the high mount brake light.

1995 GS and I believe its LED's can't say until I open it up...... I never had to do anything to the tail for 25 years

If it's not a Spyder then it has LED's in the third brake light. I don't think you can pull the bulbs out of the sockets. I wouldn't want to crack the cover anyway.
