Replacing brake light bulb

[fishybrix]

I replaced my brake light bulb, but it's not working. Do I need to do something else to fix it?

There might be a wiring issue somewhere, or you might want to check for any error codes that indicates something is wrong with the brake light system.

Try to double-check that bulb is snug in the socket! And while you’re at it, peek at the brake light fuse in the fuse box - could be blown or something. If all looks good but it’s still not lighting up, it might be time to hit up a tech for some help.

Could you share the brand of the bulb you swapped out?

I swapped out two of my brake bulbs, and they've always done the trick as long as I stick with replacement bulbs that have the same number stamp.
