brake light
« on: March 24, 2013, 05:38:17 pm »
my driver's side brake light and rear turn signal quit working.  checked the bulb and it looked good, but did change it out.  now i have my flasher, but still no brake light.

what would be my next step to look at?

Usually if the flasher works on all 4 corners the turn signal switch in the column is shot or at least dirty.

just checked and all of the hazards are working, so. if i am reading this correctly, it is more than likely the turn signal switch in the column?  just want to confirm this before i tore her apart.
