Hi there - thanks for your help - love your website

My brake lights and turn lights all work in the back -but the back lights that turn on when you put your headlights on dont work....i think those are the same bulbs that work otherwise (when I brake)

help!

i have replaced the bulbs and still people are flashing me thinking my headlights are out...

thanks

check all the fuses. There should be one for the running lights. Do the front running lights work?

i think i am getting tripped up on terms - by running lights do you mean light that go along side of the car? i think the front lights are fine...where is the fuse box?

thanks!

i mean the yellow lights in the front that come on with the headlights. There is one fuse panel inside the car on drivers side of dash, and one near the battery under the hood

If both rears dont work but the fronts do, then we can isolate the problem to one end of the car and not the source

here is what I did - I checked the 10A fuse and it indeed was blown - so then I got another 10A fuse and put it in and turned on the headlights, the running light still did not turn on and then i re-checked the new 10A fuse and it was blown!

now I have no idea what to do.....please help!!!

thanks so much
