By chance, is there any condensation or water inside the tail light assembly? I DONT THINK THERE IS BUT, BUT I DONT DOUBT THAT THERE ISNT ANY IN THERE. I KNOW ONE OF THE LIGHTS HAVE HAD CORROSION IN THE CONNECTORS. LETS SAY THERE IS CONDENSATION, WHAT WOULD BE THE PROCESS OF FIXING THAT PROBLEM?

TDK Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Dana f, You may find the following search based on "tail lights", to be helpfull regarding fuses. http://caddyinfo.ipbhost.com/index.php?sho...;hl=tail+lights If the socket is corroded, then you could try to clean it out with a small wire brush or sandpaper (make sure the power is off). and then spray it with some WD-40 to exclude water and stop corrosion. If it is too far gone, then it might be best to cut it off and wire in a new socket. However, until the condensation or leakage is stopped, then the problem may manifest itself again. Some have had success with drilling a small drain hole in the bottom of the lens, (a somewhat inelegant measure, although effective to some degree). Others have managed to dry out and re-seal the lens assembly - for a better repair. Those threads can be searched for as well. Good Luck, Add power to leave problems behind. Most braking is just - poor planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
