I have a 07 Trailblazer. My wife told me that my driver side brake light was out. I had a spare so I attempted to change it. The new lamp would not work, Thinking it was a bad bulb, I tried the turn signal lamp and still no avail. The turn signal works, and the bulbs work.
The passenger side tail light works, so I am ruling out the fuse. what are your thoughts? could it be a ground? if so does anyone know where that would be for the tail light? |
| I had a Dakota that had a wire corrode at the connector. I checked everything and couldn't find a problem. I then went to checking wires. I pulled on each wire and one pulled out. I disassembled the connector, restripped the wire, worked my ass off to reuse the old crimped connector. It took a long time to get it opened up without destroying it. Once I had it opened up, I put the newly stripped wire in it and crimped it. I then reassembled the connector and it fixed the problem. |

Try the brake light from the working side in the side with the brake light out. If that doesn't work, might be a wiring problem. Sometimes tail lights don't work in brake light sockets. ETA: One time I thought I had a proper spare brake light but it wasn't the right one.......so it didn't work. |
