I have replaced the tail light twice now.
the brake light still works.
How would I go about finding out what is causing just the tail light to blow out but the brake light still works when they are one in the same bulb?

Hi:
It is the same bulb, but they receive power from two different places in the socket. Check the socket closely for damage. Also, check the voltage to the socket.

Let me know what you find.
