k so heres the problem:
when i turn on my lights, the rear driver side only has one of the 2 light lit up. passenger side has both lit up, as per normal.
when i hit the brake both light up. (so i konw the bulb's fine)

what ive tried:
replace bulb... nothing
get new harness... nothing
fiddle with fuses... nothing


anyone know whats wrong, am i checking the wrong fuse, am i just that dumb?

 

I have this same issue, been fighting it for some time now. check underhood 20 &21. (both 7.5 mini's)I am trying to figure out why it keeps happening. so bup for other answers

 

So, I'm assuming that out of the 4 lights, the Left/ Outer bulb does not light up with the lights on? But the brake lights on the same bulb work when brakes applied?
Do you have the proper bulb installed? Are both filaments working? I believe that it's an 1157 or 2057 bulb that's supposed to be in there. They are dual filament bulbs. A quick way to test that is to swap the bulb with the Right Side brake light bulb, since there's no problem with that side. You can diagnose a burnt out filament and an incorrect bulb at the same time by swapping bulbs. If it still doesn't work, grab a multi-meter and test for power and ground to the bulb connector. I doubt it's a ground problem, it shares the same ground as the license plate lights and the rear side marker lights, and you would have noticed if they weren't working. Check the bulb first and let me know what you find. Let me know if you need more help, or better yet, get your friend Daymon to hook you up with Uncle Chan to fix it for you.

 

Not in Reba's case. A problem with fuses 20 will cut out ALL the lights on the right side of the car, including BOTH the rear tail lights on the right side, the R/F marker light and all the side marker lights on the right side. Fuse 21 will do the same for the left side of the vehicle.
In your case, if your fuses keep blowing, then you've got a short circuit to ground, or excessive resistance in a circuit causing the fuse to blow.

 

Actually Excessive resistance does not blow fuses. If you think about it, according ohms law, as resistance increases, amperage actually decreases. So, since higher amperage than what is specified on the fuse is the only thing that blows fuses, if you have high resistance, that means you have low amperage, hence no blown fuse. Not trying to bash, just trying to help. Let me know if you need more explanation. Personally I would check for corrosion on the connector, or check the pins and make sure that they aren't pushed out.

 

Oops. Viewing multiple topics , reading schematics, and posting all at the same time could lead to some confusion. Correct, the fuse is blowing because somewhere in the circuit, the current is finding the shortest path to ground. The 'excessive resistance' was meant to be typed in a PM to a member with another problem.

 

My rear tail light bulbs both dont work when I have ebreak on. When I push the breaks they all work fine. Then front driver side blub right next to turn signal is out. I replaced the bulbs in rear and still out Ill check fuses tm.

 

having same issue here, excecpt rear left running lights blinker and license lights out! Any ideas??? Fuses are all ok and not blown

Do this and it should fix all of your electrical issues (if you have any corrossion here)!
