I just installed new tailights last week and for some reason my brake lights dont work. All the lights are illuminated but when I hit the brakes, the brake lights dont get any brighter. My rear window brake light works but the two tailight brake lights dont.

I double checked everything and nothing seems to be the issue. I even installed the old ones tail's back and those dont even work know.

Any suggestions?

 

anyone?

 

assuming you checked your fuses? not sure if the brakes have a dif one than the tails but probably do

 

The bulbs have to be dual filament.....if they are single filament then it wont get brighter when you step on the brakes

 

i check all the fuses and they are all fine. I took the old bulbs from my stock tailights and put them into the VII tails.

 

STUPID...it was just the bulbs. I went to Nappa, got 2 new bulbs...all set. I just thought it was odd that both bulbs would go exactly at the same time.

Thanks for the help though.

 

I had the same issue with my tail lights but it wasnt the bulbs coz it would turn up when pressing the brakes, was a fuse issue.. glad u got it sorted!
