Jayhoath83 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Mabe check ur bulb holders/harness as it could be melted or damaged just a thought as far as a grounding wire im as lost as you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash1988 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Lol iv checked the bulb area as you said but all looks fine it's weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Lol iv checked the bulb area as you said but all looks fine it's weird Are you 100% sure you have the correct bulb? Compare it to the working light. The little bumbs on the stud should fit nicely into the grooves in the holder. I once accidentally put wrong ones in (that didn't 100% match the grooves) and the result was both rear brake lights on the whole time... and since it was both i didn't even realise this until after quite a while!

Hash1988 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 Yea the right side works fine so I swapped bulbs thinking same as you but still does it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Must be the wires then... that's all i can think of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash1988 Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 Do you know where the right sort of place to look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I would start from the rear lights and follow them as far as you can but if i remember correctly they go into a tube underneath the body panels soon, so it gets a bit complicated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
