RichDartmoor Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 I have a focus Lx 2003 auto, the rear near side brake light is non operational when brake depressed, but the tail lights are not affected, I have replaced the bulbs still the same result, any help much appreciated. Thanks, Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stef123 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 It would be worth checking the fuses as the brake lights are fused individually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichDartmoor Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 Thanks for your post stef123, I'll certainly try the fuse and see if I can resolve the problem. Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 The brake lights are fed from one fuse -F54 (15A) in the glove box panel so you're best off checking the bulb holder for corrosion and the wiring for breaks and shorting.

Stoney871, thank you for your post, indeed I'll have a root around and see what gives. Rich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
