| Post subject: | Brake Lights out??? |
My rear brake lights are both out. Both the dimmer nighttime setting w/ the headlights AND the bright-light for braking. They are on seperate fuses, both of which are still fine... The headlights, third (top) brake light, fog lights, interior lights and all turn signals/flashers are working normally... Wierd. People kept flashing me on freeway until I pulled over and checked. Then I stayed in the right lane with blinkers on- PEOPLE KEPT HONKING AND FLASHING! DAMMMIT! I KNOW MY LIGHTS ARE OUT! WHY DO YOU THINK MY EMERG. FLASHERS ARE ON???? *GRRRRRRR.....* So lame. *sigh* So a trip to the dealer tomorrow to find out what's wrong, I guess. Any theories? |

Sounds like a wiring issue to me. Sounds like that you have a disconnection somewhere to a main power source. It should be a easy fix, after they find it that is. |

Did you check the bulbs? Its strange but not impossible to loose both bulbs in a similar amount of time...they're both on the exact same amount of time...sometimes when either the Low or High filament (park/brake) breaks, it takes out the other filament. Check the easy stuff first...if its not the bulbs have the wiring checked. |

Fixed under warranty... But wierd. Apparently, both rear lens assemblies were half-filled with "rainwater" and it blew the bulbs out... Huh? So they replaced the "pods" on boths sides, all the lights/lenses/housing. He said the "seals" were broken and it let rainwater in. Whatever. It's been raining a lot- we'll see how fast that happens again. |
