On a Jeep Grand Cherokee, the most common problem are the light sockets the bulb goes in. The sockets have little contacts on the edges that become worn and don't allow the bulb to light up. The sockets usually have to be replaced and can be bought at ant parts supplier.

The most common culprit is a blown fuse.

Your manual should be able to direct you to the location of the fuse box and applicable fuse. Replace fuses only with those of the same rating called for in the manual.

Rear brakelights dont come on fuses and bulbs are fine rear window brake light works

If the high level brake light works, then the brake light circuit is fully functional.

Brake light bulbs may LOOK fine, but can still have failed. Often folks don't notice that one bulb has failed until the second one has blown; it's then easy to incorrectly assume that the fault is more complex.

Try replacing the brake light bulbs: if that doesn't work then please report back for additional options.

I have a 2005 300 model. I noticed that the blinker was going fast notifying of a burnt out rear light blinker bulb. I have replaced the burnt out bulb but the right blinker still goes very fast and the...

Using a test light check to see if there is power to the wire at the plug where the bulb is for the blinker. if so the socket is bad. if not check to see if the light assembly is working for ex. the parking lights or the brake light ect If those lights dont work then check the fuse for the right rear tail light. Hope this helps.
