On the high mount brake light on a 2008 Toyota avensis, the lamp in a 21w single element type. The thing to check here is the ground connection at the side of the holder. if an attempt has been made to put the lamp in the wrong way, the side connector will have been pushed flat and will not connect. after disconnecting the lamp holder the connection tab can be bent back into position.

SOURCE: Tail break lights don't work. Window break light does work however. Bulbs have been replaced.

Check the brake light fuse. The high mounted brake light (third brake light) is on a different circuit than the brake lights. Hope this helps.

Could you take out a bulb and with a testlight/probe check that you do in fact have power to that circuit .Also check that they are the correct bulb for that application I have seen people put indicator bulbs in where therse supposed to be a double filament bulb.Does the base of the bulbs lead contacts line up with the two steel terminals inside the plug?

SOURCE: 2001 dodge neon tail lights inop

looking at your schematics and , you say tail lights don't work , you didn't mention if front parking lights and license plate lights are working , they all come from the same source , a black /yellow wire , a good clue if front work and rear don't , please advise .if fronts work then you have a open circuit somewhere between junction S118 (near breakout for left headlamp) and rear sockets.

SOURCE: Tail lights don't work on 1998 Chevy Silverado.

check the wiring from the tailights back to the fuse panel, it sounds like an open connection. if i recall correctly check under the dash on the drivers side near the fuse panel for a bunch of wires in a bundle and look carefully for a wire or two that are cut/shorted/or seperated, you can also check under the drivers side kick panel by the hood release.

89 Toyota Camry, brake lights work ,but no tail lights changed the bulbs still no lights but found water in tail lights after the rain where is the fuse located

IN THE FUSE BOX. (CAB OR BAY_)
THE OLD USERS GUIDE AND THE SERVICE MANUAL COVERS FUSES.
PARKS = TAILS
PARKS ARE FRONT REAR. BOTH
SO ARE BOTH ENDS OF CAR DEAD FOR PARKS?
THE FUSE IS MARKED "TAIL"
AND RUNS ALL 10 PARK LAMPS ON THE CAR.
THE PARK FEED TO TAIL OF CAR PASSES TROUGH A LIGHT FAILURE SENSOR ON 4 REAR TAIL LAMPS ONLY
THE SENSORS IS OPTIONAL AND NEEDS FUSE "GAUGE" NOT BLOW TOO., THIS OPTION SO FITTED, HAS CLUSTER LAMP CALLED
"REAR LIGHT " WARNING

REPOST AND TELL WHAT ALL 10 PARKS DO.
OTHER WISE HUGE WORK DOING THE HARDWAY

FRONT, REAR AND SIDE MARKER ARE ALL PARK LAMPS
THE LEGACY NAME TAIL IS STILL USED BACK TO 1920.
SO IS A TRADITION BUT BIG TIME CONFUSING WITH 10 LAMPS.
LIKE SAYING MY FRONT TAIL LAMPS ARE DEAD., SILLY.

2003 Toyota celiac got..started having problems with tail/break light about a year ago. Tail light has been replace twice and fuse once. Just replaced bulb again, and nnow neither side is working. New...

Hi
it seems like you have an electric problem.
unfortunately it's back tracking on wires to fuse box with a multi-meter and to check the continuity. if you not good with electrics then you will have to see an auto-electrician

thanks

Change interior light in avensis

As you push the light swithc in (to turn on) you will see a pivot, either side you will need a small precision straight and wedge it either side of the pivot point. The Plstic cluster should remove thus enabling you to put in new bulbs, i on the other hand replaced these bulbs with the error free T10 : Canbus 8 SMD LED No Error Free HID White Xenon W5W T10 501 Side Light Bulbs * You can find these on Ebay, cheap as chips and dont cause any problems.

1985 Celica GT dashboard and running lights out

Hello, the 15A tail fuse is the only fuse in this circuit, yes there is a short to ground, remove all the bulbs in the rear and check to see if the fuse still blows, if not the problem is at the rear lights, possibly a wrong bulb in one of the sockets or s short between the green wires(power) and ground(white/black) wires. If this doesn't stop the short then the problem is up front, possibly a parking or side marker light, do the same, remove the bulbs, if the fuse stays in replace the bulbs one by one until it blows again to isolate which light is causing the problem.

I have changed all light bulbs in the tail lights,...

I would look for a short in the wiring.If you replaced the bulbs and the new bulbs were good then the only real answer is a short.

1994 Camry - Brake Lights Work, Tail Lights Wont

Well Jennifer, it sounds like you've done all the things that I'd have done. Try for a bad ground next. Do the lights in the dash cluster work? They're wired together with the tail-lights (so that you know if the rears go out). There should be a ground wire somewhere connecting the body to the engine or chassis.Look around the rear of the engine bay. Good Luck.
