I'd check the fuses under the hood and if you can't find any that are out, there is also fuses behind the glove box. I'd check those first. And the bulbs that are out behind the dash and under the shift area can be removed by hand and replaced. All these things you should be able to do by hand.

On my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, the passenger side brake light comes on but the tail light does not come on when the lights are on. It's the same bulb. Any suggestions?

  • First have you tried a new bulb? That the first recommendation. It's cheap, easy to replace, and narrows things down a bit.

  • Sometimes in the bulb socket one of the three terminals in the bulb socket gets a little bent and has to be bent back out so it makes contact otherwise the signal of braking will not reach the filament and the regular tail light remains no matter what.

  • Should you inspect / try that tip and this problem remains then you may need to replace that one socket. Make sure all continuity and grounds test out first. That's about all there is to that.


  • If you have any comments please feel free to leave them here.
  • Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, I had blinkers and flashers no brake lights, and after checking the bulbs in the light itself I dont have blinkers or flashers at all

Just no turn signals in the back now? Maybe didn't install the bulbs tight back into the asm? No brake lights...do the lights work with headlights on and just no illumination with the brake pedal depressed? Could be brake light switch.

Rear light failure?

Hey, my 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee did the same thing and it took me a long time to find a solution. It turned out, at least in my case, that there was a burnt out bulb just above the license plate. When I replaced it the warning went away.
