When they are on, my left one goes out. How can I fix this? I'm driving a 83 chevy s-10 blazer 6 cylinder . My car uses the same bulb for taillight and brake-light. Basically, while my taillights are supposed to be on, and I step on the brakes, that entire bulb turns off (on the left side). Head/Tail lights switched OFF, foot ON the brake, brake light is illuminated. (as it should be) Head/Tail lights switched ON, foot off the brake, tail light is illuminated. (as it should be) Head/Tail lights switched ON, foot ON the brake, tail/brake light bulb is out. (broken!) Thanks Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Dec 11, 2008, 7:59 PM Post #2 of 3 (1324 views) Re: Blazer brake light problem Sign In Wild and crazy things happen at the socket at that age and younger too! Also there may be trailer wiring crossed up or wires spliced into for a trailer that don't hold up well. Perhaps try taking one bulb OUT at a time and check carefully for what is empowered and what is ground with a test light, T way2old Veteran / Moderator Dec 12, 2008, 4:51 AM Post #3 of 3 (1317 views) Re: Blazer brake light problem Sign In To add--have you replaced the bulb that is going out??
