2004 Prius driver side rear taillight needs to be tapped to light about half the time. Should I replace bulb? If so , what is the procedure to access bulb?
Replace the bulb, you can access the bulb when you open the hatch. there is a cover at the back of the tail lights. or go to your local autozone or pepboys. they will replace it for you with no extra charge
Testimonial: "A friend showed me how easy it was to access the bulb by twisting the holder and then removing bulb. YOur response was excellent as well. Thanks! "
The brake light / stop light is not a bulb on the 04 Prius and later model years. It is an array of LEDs in the tail light assembly and you cannot get to the LEDs because they are sealed in the assembly. You must replace the entire tail light assembly! This is a common problem, they have an intermittent fail mode inside the sealed part of the assembly!
