The 2012 Ford Escape has 2 different fuse boxes: ... Brake Shift Interlock (BSI), Passenger compartment fuse panel. Fuse MINI ... Turn signals, Stop lamps.

I would guess that you need a new bulb. Many of these tail lights actually have two filaments inside them, one that is used for a dimmer light (running light) and one that is used for a brighter light like (brake light, turn signal). The easiest thing to try (and probably the cheapest) would be to buy a replacement bulb and change it. Most places that sell automotive light bulbs will have a large catalog where you look up the make model and year of the car you need a light for and it will tell you which replacement bulb you will need. Then look in your cars manual to see how you access and replace the bulb.

Instructions

1. Make sure the the headlight switch is in the off position.
   
2. Open the bonnet to the Escort.
   
3. Locate the back side of the headlight assembly to the headlight that needs to be changed (driver's side or passenger side) from inside the front the engine compartment.
4. Unplug the wires from the back of the bulb.
5. Turn the back of the bulb housing counterclockwise one-third of a turn until the bulb and wire harness are released from the headlight assembly.
6. Unplug the wire harness from the bulb socket.
7. If using Halogen headlight replacement and be careful not to touch the glass bulb part. Handle it by the socket at the bottom of the headlight.
8. Plug the wire harness into the new headlight replacement.
9. Align the tabs on the headlight housing to the slots in the headlight assembly and insert the bulb into the assembly. Twist the headlight one-third of a turn clockwise until it locks into place.

Instructions Things You'll Need:

• 9007 LL halogen headlight bulb
• Wrench
• Gloves or clean rag

1. Step 1 Set the parking brake and remove the keys from the ignition to ensure your Chevy Cobalt won't roll while you're replacing the headlight bulb.
   
2. Step 2 Open the hood by pulling the hood release latch located under the instrument panel on the driver's side of the car. Locate the secondary release latch on the front of the hood at the center, slightly towards the driver's side. Slide the latch to the left to release the hood and raise it.
   
3. Step 3 Locate the headlight assembly and remove the bolts by turning them counterclockwise. Set the bolts aside in a safe place, so you won't misplace them.
   
4. Step 4 Remove the plastic fasteners from the headlight assembly molding. Carefully pull back the front fascia, or molding. You may need an extra pair of hands to perform this slightly awkward task.
   
5. Step 5 Grab the headlight assembly and pull it towards the radiator at a slight angle to remove it. This should provide easier access to the headlight bulb and wiring harness.
   
6. Step 6 Lift the plastic locking tab on the wiring harness to disconnect the bulb base. Then, disconnect the wiring harness from the bulb socket and remove the black retainer by turning it counterclockwise.
   
7. Step 7 Disconnect the bulb socket by turning it counterclockwise. Remove the old bulb from the socket by firmly, but gently pulling it straight out.
   
8. Step 8 Replace the old bulb with a new 9007 LL halogen headlight bulb. Put your headlight assembly back together by reversing the steps when you disassembled it. Use 89 inch-lb torque when retightening the headlight assembly
   

this video is very good

pop the hood and then twist or pull the cap covering the back of the headlight assembly and then push the metal retaining clip inwards slightly to release it and then disconnect the harness and the bulb should pop right out

you have to remove the whole headlight assembly, then pop off the front cover pull the old bulb out and put the new one in. reverse the process to re-install. there is a small plastic tab on the topfront of the headlight assembly, that is what you need to release to get the clear cover off and get inside.

The E46 2001 325i headlight assembly is held down by 4 bolts. Question is where they are and how to get to them. The 4 bolts require a 10mm wrench.

There are two bolts on top of the headlight assembly. And two more near the back of the assembly, near the area where you would change a headlight bulb.

There is just one more trick to this. Please refer to this trim: http://e46fanatics.com/howto/howtodetail.php?howto_id=24

This trim hooks on to the side fender, just under the turn signal. You have to unhook this.

Then the entire headlight assembly (including the turn signal) can be slided out together.

ithere are 4 bolts that hold it in...the top 2 are obvious..the others are behind the bumper. the bumper must be removed to acces them...here are the manuals instructions..
