Tail and brake light not functioning

Asked by Guru93144Y Mar 28, 2023 at 03:23 PM about the 1994 Toyota Pickup 2 Dr DX Extended Cab SB

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Blinker lights work but tail and brake lights don't. This is a very recent issue and
all the bulbs were checked and are good. Could it possibly be a fuse problem
and is so which fuse in the fuse box, thank you.

Brake lights are hot at all times ( HAT ) along with horn and headlights . Could be a grounding problem , Brake lights may run through the directional switch if they share a bulb , Look for any obvious wiring problems underneath . A multi tester is useful for solving electrical problems
