Rear bulbs

[Dave Niederhauser]

My bllinker and brake light are out in the left rear, before I go and buy one. Is the blinker and brake light run on the same bulb. Do I need 2 bulbs or one..

First,,,

try tilting the steering column and see if it solves the issue.



If so, then you have a common issue that has affected many here at the site.



If you go to the FAQ section you will find details of it there.



Basically, the wire harness is too tight and when the column gets tilted it separates the connections. When it is tilted back, all works again...

Is one bulb,the lower one,if the flasher is blinking faster on the left side just change the bulb.

I have seen the issues with the steering column, I'm the only driver and don't move the column. It's cold out and will try that first ..... 8 outside . Is the fix the same for 2008 Gen 2 as the GEN 1 in the projects. ?

I didn't realize you had a Gen 2 Trac.



I do not think the wire harness issue applies to you...

Thanks to all

Update ... On GEN2 2008 only 2 bolts need to be removed to replace tail lights....
