My my brake lights on the left and right side have gone out. I checked the bulbs and replaced all of them. My AC/Heater Console light is out as well. Other than the bulbs what else could I check? Could it be the fuse or the bulb holders themselves, but if it's the bulb holders would they all go bad at the same time? Any help would be much appreciated. Raymond 97 Disco |

first check fuses. not likely to be bulb sockets. unless they got wet and corroded. |

Used a test light yet to check if the sockets are actually getting power? |

I tested the fuse and it was fine ,but there is no power going in or coming out where that fuse was. Does the truck have to be turned all the way on because the fuse right next to it works fine? I also didn't see any water damage on or near the sockets. It's really weird because on the left side on stop light works not the brake light and on the right side the brake light and stop light are out. Is there one fuse for all the rear brake lights and stop lights? |

I replaced all the bulbs and they still don't come on for some reason. What else can I look for it's it's not the bulbs. |

Check every fuse in the box. I had the same problem and eventually checked every fuse in the fuse panel found one that had to be looked at closely with light to find break. It also may not be one that appears to correspond to problem. |

I checked and replaced most of the fuses pertaining to the lights just to be sure. The lights still didn't come on so I'm now wondering what else could be the problem. There's no water damage and the bulb holders appear to be fine. Any help would be great. |
