  • tail lamp problem

    I recently checked my tail lamps and my reverse lights. The right reverse light was weaker than the one on the left, also the right tail lamp was lower than the other one. Actually just the bulb closes to the reverse light, the left one.
    well today i bought new bulbs for the whole package, i bought 6 and installed them. They were great, much brighter, but the reverse light and the tail lamp are still lower. The tail lamp seems even only when i don't turn on the lights, just when i brake, but when i brake with the lights on, they stay weak. Do any of you know how i can fix this??

    You'll probably get better response in General Tech, so I'm gonna move it over there. This is more electrical & maintenance than electronics.

    I'll also leave this one open here in case anyone here comes up with something

    good luck!

      Our 93-97 firebirds have some real problems with the taillights, sockets, etc. That is my biggest gripe about this car... I've owned 2 94 birds and both of them I've been through numerous sockets. It really sucks.

          Better than me my right tail light alternates with turn signal (sequential) And i like it and all even though it's a problem but i can;t get the left one to do it so if i find what the problem is i'm purposely making the left on do it to it's sweet my dad and others have completemeted it thinking it was a mod. Hey i gues this makes a free mod.
