Why Is The Passenger Tail Light Not Working?

The passenger side tail light is not working. The signal and brake are still working fine, as well as tail, turn and stop on the drivers side. I have checked the bulb and fuse.

My first guess would be the bulb but you say thats been checked and dismissed. That leaves a break in the circuit after the harness splits to each side and the connecter for the bulb itself. So easy stuff first.. if you have a test light make sure theres power coming thru the connecter for both filaments and use dialectric grease just to ensure its making a good connection. If theres no power at the connecter you need to inspect the harness at the point it splits to each side of the truck. And a little trick I use on all quick connections on the harnesses of my vehicles is to run a zip tie around them. It stops road vibration from working them loose.

The one thing i can be sure of is if its just the one running light then its localized between the harness split and the bulb.


If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
