  • Tail Lights Sensitivity

    All the tail lights were working both sides before the paint job. After paint all the left (drivers) side lights work but the right is being finicky. The right side amber turn single, backup, and red brake on filament side of 1157 all work. However, the red lights-on driving filament (1157), and the fender side red do not. All the bulbs are good. What triggers the 1157 running light filament.

    I believe it is the Red wire circuit.

    Probably the same one/circuit that your license plate lamp is on that you needed to fish back out. Check the black junction connection(s)

        Thanks guys. That is so weird. I have never seen a 2 filament bulb wired with each filament on a separate circuit. All is good.
