Tail Light

A problem has developed with my drivers side tail light which puzzles me (not difficult!) The bulb appeared to have gone so I changed it. On testing the bulb all I got was a faint glow across the filament. I replaced the original bulb and the same thing happened!
Anyone have a clue?

Hi Wyefish,
Poor illumination is often an earth or contact problem.
If it was mine I'd clean all contacts poss/neg and see how that went.
Hope this helps.
All the best

Yep - usually a bad earth. Get someone to push your brake pedal to check if that's the same.

Thanks for the advice, chaps! Did that, seems to be working ok now.
