When the brake lights on your vehicle fail to work, there are several things that could be the cause: a blown fuse, a worn-out light switch, a burned out light bulb, and so many more problems. Here are some things you can do if your brake lights fail and stop working.
IF ONE OR MORE BRAKE LIGHTS FAIL
The good news is that if one or more of your brake lights fail suddenly and stop working, it is relatively easy to fix. Here’s what to do:
Check the condition of the light bulbs.Remove the light bulbs. To do this, push each one down and turn it counterclockwise, then pull it out.Take a careful look at each bulb. It could be that the bulb itself has failed and simply needs to be replaced. In this case, make sure to replace it with bulbs of the same type and wattage.
IF NO BRAKE LIGHTS WORK
If none if the brake lights work, you might have to take a critical look at the components that affect the entire circuit (the fuse, brake light switch, turn light switch etc.). Note that you should only carry out any of the above steps if you feel comfortable doing DIY work on your car. If not, you might find it more prudent to take the car to the mechanic for proper attention. Whatever your skills level, do not forget that it is dangerous to drive around with brake lights that don’t work.
