My tail lights burned out a couple days ago and after I replaced one I realized that the other burned in the socket so I had to get a whole new socket. After fixing bulbs, my brake pedal is not registering to my push start so I have to override start it and my brake lights don’t work when I press brake. Another thing that I’m confused about is my traction control light came on and hasn’t gone off. I’ve replaced bulbs checked fuses and replaced the brake light switch but still not working. Has anyone had these issues before?
