Back from a long drive on thanksgiving and my tail lights are doing all kinds of weird things...

Passenger signal was working off and on...it would shut off if I bumped the light or closed the hatch. Took the bulb out, bent the contacts in the socket back up and reinstalled...now it seems to work again.

Today my drivers side brake light wont' light up when the headlights are on? The fuse is ok, so I'm thinking its either the socket, or the circuit board inside the tail light unit...

lame....

 

Got the brake light to work with the headlights, although one side seems brighter than the other. Ordered 6 new sockets to swap them out in both tailights... should solve the problems (i hope)

 

When it rains it pours.... swapped all six sockets and realized the reverse lights aren't working.

checked all fuses, bulbs and wiring.... maybe related to the solenoid in the tranny.?

anythoughts?
