Brake Light Not Working

[duesergirl]

Like the topic says, the right brake light doesn't light up when you hit the brakes, but the bulbs are fine. When you push the lock button on the keychain, all the bulbs on that side flash, just like they should, and when the lights are on, there aren't any bulbs out. I'm stumped. Any help please?

Oh, and I did search, so if this has been covered, please direct me to it cause I couldn't find it. :)

did you try switching the left bulb with the right bulb just to make double sure that the bulb is working right.

it's probably still the bulb... they have 2 fillaments, and one of them probably burnt out.

There is a switch at the Brake pedal check that as it loosens or bends or just stops working & has to be replaced.

If it's not the bulbs it may be a switch on the brake pedal. You can fix it with a soudering iron with a good eletrical contact wire.

I had the same problem with my Cougar. Very dangerous driving like that so fix it fast. Don't burn yourself :rolleyes: It will be a PIA to get up under the dash to fix
