As far as the triumph Bonneville question I asked. I troubleshot it down to a problem in the key switch. One of the copper contacts was cracked internally and the The taillight would not work in the on position. Only the Park position. Very sneaky and tricky find. But with a lil theory, a multimeter and I got it solved. Thank you for your suggestions..

SOURCE: Brake lights don't work

Test the bulbs, either with a multimeter or by taking leads from the battery (one from each terminal) and touching them on the bulbs terminals...no light...new bulb.
If bulbs are OK then clean all terminals with emery paper. Still no luck...use mulitimeter to test continuity from fuse to bulb seat terminal. If no continuity check the wiring has not been damaged...if so replace it. Usually this is a corrosion problem. Good Luck.

It mught be the bulb that needs replacing or else check the wiring to the bulb for continuity in case there is a broken or snapped bit.If you have a voltmeter then you can test the voltage reading at the point of contact..Sometimes rust builds up and a simple cleaning would solve this.Hope this helps.

On my 2002 pontiac bonneville i have a water leak going into the tail light?

Sounds like the tail light seal is bad. You can try re-gluing it, or just buy a new set of lights off of ebay fairly inexpensively.

Tail lights went out, but break lights still work....what is going on???

Bulbs have 2 filaments in them so that one bulb can do the same as two. One filament runs for brake and turn signals the other for the tail lights. You need a set of 1157 bulbs with the flat plastic ends. If new bulbs don't work you may have a wiring or switch problem, but they die at the same time a lot more than people think

I have a 95 pontiac bonneville ssei and the tail lights dash lights and turn signals were not working. i replaced the headlight switch and a fuse and my tail lights and dash lights come on now, but when i...

you have a dead short in the wiring harness. Easiest way to diagnose is remove tail/parking bulbs and systematically replace them one at a time. When you replace them, not buy new ones just unplug them, your problem circuit will be when the lamps go dim. That's your short.

Let me know how it goes!

P.s. is the 666 because of the 3 b's in bobbie? Carefull, one's irthday is 12,22,12 may get upset. lol
