Hello,

It could be the TIPM but to be sure it could be a bad connection at the bulb or a bad fuse # 28, 3, 17 and 33. Here is a guide to help you test the connection and the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works below.

If the TIPM is bad here is the replacement instructions which is easy because the TIPM is plug and play. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
