Hi, I've got a '94 4.0L 2WD, 216k.
I noticed that all three brake lights aren't working. Running / parking lights are fine, though.
- Fuse is good.
- Switch connector shows 12.1v on the multimeter.
- Replaced brake light switch.
- Opened taillight housing and found that both top 3157 bulbs were a little blackened. Replaced both, and the brake lights still won't work.
What should I check next? The bulbs hadn't been changed in at least five years.
The originals were Sylvania 3157k and I replaced 'em with plain old 3157 bulbs. Could that be the issue?
