When I turn on my headlights, my tail lights do not come on, but when i hit the brakes, the brake lights do come on.
So the brake lights work, but the tail lights don't.
I looked in the fuse box under the dash on the drivers side and the #11 tail fuse looked like it had burned out previously.
I replaced it with another 15amp fuse but the lights still aren't working properly...
Does this mean I have a short in the wire somewhere?
What else could be wrong?

Thanks


I've been lurking for a long time now but I couldn't find an answer through any searching... so now I'm a member! laugh.gif

You could test the bulbs with a 12V source, but generally the easiest thing to do is to try a new bulb. If the filament broke in the right place it'll look intact short of a magnifying glass.
