Hello; To change bulbs remove the cover in the trunk (pull it away) Remove the nut's/wing nuts and the assembly will come out. If you ever have to change any of bulbs that are on the deck lid you will need to remove the covering on the inside of the deck lid, remove the assembly and change the bulb.

1996 chevrolet C1500. The back left turning signal/brakes light is not working. Front left turning signal works fine.(Faster than usual). The bulb comes on when the headlights are on(steady), but does not...

The bulb for the turn signal/brake light is a double filament bulb. It will come on with the lights on, but should light the second filament, making it brighter, with the brakes applied or turn signal on. It could just be a bad bulb, but one common problem on these years of truck is the rear light circuit board and requires the whole assembly to be replaced. Start by checking the bulb first though.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

Left turn signal comes on and flashes but not the right one

If the arrow stays on on the dash, you have a burnt bulb on the right side. If the front right bulb stays on and the right rear is out, the rear bulb is burnt. If the rear is on solid, the front is burnt. If both front and rear is on, either you have a bad connection at the sockets, bad turn signal relay, or a bad multifunction switch - which is usually the turn signal switch in the steering column.

1996 chev pickup - left rear turn signal does not work. Front turn signal is blinking fast. Have replaced bulbs and the lamp bases in taillight section. Right side is working fine. Could it be the flasher?

no it can not be the flasher. if bulbs and socket is good in left rear u may have no power or ground. need to check wiring to that lamp. also fast blinking is a normal condition when you have a lamp out

Rear lights work when turned on. No brake lights or rear turn signals. Front turn signals flash more rapidly. Replaced both rear bulbs with no change

if you're getting a more rapid flash in the front you have a possible blown relay to the back. Check fuses first and see if those are out.

Signal bulb replacement

you may be able to access the bulb housing under the hood. open the hood and look behind the turn signal for the bulb housing. once located, grasp the housing and turn counterclockwise about a quarter and then pull. be sure to replace wtih the same type/part number bulb.
