Both my brake lights stopped working. The one at the top of the tailgate still works.
Because they are both out I can't remember where they are located.
Are they in the side housing or in the tailgate?
If anyone could share a picture or diagram showing where the brake light bulbs are located that would be great.
Thanks

Re: Brake light bulb location
Typically on the rear pillar.
Open the tailgate, remove 2 screws, and slide the cluster sideways/outwards.

Re: Brake light bulb location
Hi. I managed to remove the side housing and checked the bulbs. They all seem to be intact. Still don't know which is the brake light!
Is it top middle or bottom bulb in the side housing?
I assume the side brake lights are on the same fuse as the wide top tailgate brake light which works.
I am confused.
Any ideas / advice much appreciated.

Re: Brake light bulb location
If you turn on the side lights and the turn lights then the only light not lit up will be the Brake lights!!
The feed for the brake lights comes as I recall to the offside housing, and has two feeds from that one to the highlevel brake light and a second to the nearside light, if you have a towbar and lights then likely to be another additional wire added to feed the socket on the towbar connector.
