Sound like a electrical problem or bad harnesses connections; you will need to take off instrument cluster in order to check it. Also, check ground connections.

Hope helps.

SOURCE: I have a brake light

do you have a bed liner?? if so, you need to move the bed liner away from the rear lights in back to access the screws that hold the tail light in. on the side of the bed right by the tail light are 2 screws holding the light in. remove screws, remove tail light replace bulbs, re-assemble.

SOURCE: i have code p1776 check engine light on my nissan

I have the same issue, rebuilt the tranny and replaced the solenoid, checked electrical and functionality of soleniod and I am still having the same problem.

I notice it happens in the 50-60 mph range. If I le the truck warm up then hit the road and quickly excellerate to 65 or above and stay there I can go with out any trouble. If I should forget and run in the 50 to 60 MPH range, I will get the code. if I drive that way a second time, the MIL will come on showing P1776 twice.

1998 nissan frontier 4x4

Well since the lights are controlled by the OBD (on board diagnostics), you'll have to reset it. You may be able to do this by simply disconnecting the battery for a few hours. However, a lot of newer vehicles have electronically locked radios which require the manual to be able to be re-enabled.

I'd check out the radio before disconnecting the battery.

The only other ways are to physically disconnect the lights in the dash or get someone with an OBD reader to clear the codes.
