just swapped out for 2000 SE lights... easy swap.. plug and play

however both my tail lights don't work when i turn on the headlights. however, both brake lights work when i brake. Isn't this the same bulb? what's going on here? do i need new bulbs?

Sorry... i'm a dunce when it comes to electronics.

 

since the bulb is a dual filament, you may not have it in right...just try flipping the bulb around and it should work...you have the 7443 correct? because if you have the 7440 i think its a single filament and wont work...

 

is it possible for one of the filaments to burn out? so that my brake lights work but my tail lights don't work (with headlights)

 

well im not really that electrically inclined, so i have no clue...i have just heard of this same problem on the .org a couple of times, and i know that it either has something to do with having the bulb flipped around the wrong way, or that you have a 7440, which is a single filament bulb....some one more intelligent is bound to give you a better answer some time...sorry i couldnt be of greater help for you....did you check to see if your bulbs are in right though?

 

Yes. I had low beam burn out but high beam still worked.

 

Yes, if you have the 2000 taillights, you have to have the 7443 bulb for the brake/parking lights. Also, for the turn signal, you must have a special bulb, "PY21W". The sockets are different as compared to the 2K2-2K3's taillights. I have a 2000 SE, and I did the opposite...I upgraded to the 2K2-2K3's SE taillights.
