You may have a bad ground wire or a wire with corrosion or rust on the connection (s). Try running a wire from a good ground to the black lead on your tail light harness. Test functions on the different sockets. If this cures the problem, inspect all connection in the ground circuit for corrosion ( green or white buildup ) or rust. When you find the problem, clean the contacts with a pocketknife or wire brush until shiny, then apply a small dab of dielectric grease to the mating surfaces. The grease will ****** the return of the corrosion or rust. Failing that, run a new ground wire to the affected lights and cut the old ground so it cannot cause interference.
Hope this helps!!

My brake lights and rear blinkers are not working. I have replaced the bulbs in both brake lights. What next?

most blinkers uses relays, and when they flashes fast one light is out, but you replaced your burnt bulb might be a bad relay.

Would a bad Flasher relay cause the brake lights not to work?

The flasher does not stop the brake lights from working. Check # 18 fuse in fusebox under lower left side of dash. if it's ok, the brake light switch, on the brake pedal arm is next. light green wire with red stripe is hot if fuse 18 is ok. Depress brake pedal, light green with no stripe should have power. if not, replace brake light switch. If light green wire has power with pedal depressed, combination switch under the steering is next. Remove the cover from around the combo switch {under the steering wheel}. depress brake pedal, light green wire should have power. If it does, pedal still depressed, orange with light blue wire & wire with light green & orange should have power. Those 2 wires are brake & rear turn signal wires. { The turn signal switch should be in the middle, not right position or left. while checking for power in the last 2 wires. Good Luck drvolt.

No break lights, blinkers or hazzards. I changed the fuses. That wasn't it. Still No breaks, blinkers or hazards. Where is the relay?

I would check the turn signal/ hazard flasher module, its on the brake pedal bracket, 5 wires, turn the hazards on and give the side of it a few raps with a screwdriver and see if it starts flashing. The PINK should have 12v. If that checks out good it may need the turn signal switch. At the turn signal switch there is a WHITE wire that should have 12v when the brake is depressed, then you should have 12 on the DARK GREEN and the YELLOW wires coming out. If the center high mounted light works, then the brake switch at the pedal is good.

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.

The blinker clicking sound won't stop when blinkers are off

Hello, you need to replace the flasher. It is located under the dash on the driver's side near the top of the brake pedal.

2001 Olds Silouhette - The blinker on the dash blinks quickly

NO PROBLEM TURN ON THE RIGHT BLINKER THEN WALK AROUND THE CAR MAKE SURE FRONT AND REAR BULBS ARE FLASHING... IF YOU HAVE A BULB OUT YOU WILL NOT OFFER ENOUGH OF A LOAD TO THE FLASHER... WILL CAUSE IT TO FLASH FAST... IF OK THEN MAKE SURE THE PROPER BULB NUMBER ON BULBS AND MAKE SURE CORRECT BULBS USED IN VEHICLE.... IF OK CHANGE FLASHER

Driver side rear blinker/stop light does not work, also 3rd light stop light isn't working either

may be a bad electronic flasher unit if you lost both. if the blinkers flash very fast, that is a bulb out warning, but sometimes the flasher controls both circuits, and it is a relay.
