Rear Passenger Tail Light 200 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be Tom K on  Tue May 29 02:18 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Hello

It seems so simple, it's driving me crazy. The rear passenger tail light is out. I have replaced the fuse as well as the bulb to no avail. All other objects on the fuse(5) function. I have also taken the bulb from the drivers side (which works) and plugged it into the passenger side. Still does not work. Using an Ohm meter, there is no juice getting to this socket. Any suggestions?

Thank you Kindly,

TK

    Common problem is bad connection between the flexible plastic printed circuit and the contacts on the twist in bulb holder. Which bulb is out? Is it wired parllel with the other side? If yes then problem must be in the wiring between the two sets of lights.

    BTW hope you checked for voltage with voltmeter function and not ohms function.

      Sand gently with fine sandpaper the metal connectors on the bulb holders and the bulb and don't forget the ground connector also. Use pencil eraser for the cleaning of the plastic printed circuit. Good luck
