Front bulb and side mirror blink fast. Replaced bulbs and even switched from other side. Definitely not bulbs. Looked at connector and did not see anything corroded or broken wiring. Removed spare tire and checked, disconnected connector. did not see anything bad there either. It has been this way for a few months. Now the brake light does not work on that side as well only. Where to go from here?

Hi,

Have you checked if there is power to the light socket? The socket may be faulty. Also. The wiring schematic shows two different bulbs for the rear signal/brake lamps. Did you check both?

If you have, I need you to check for power. There should be a violet wire with an orange tracer. Check that wire for power and let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe
