Last night I pulled my side marker lights with a screwdriver and cloth then installed some clears, now neither one will light up (yes i put the bulbs back into the new housing) I don't know if maybe they werent working in the first place? i guess i never payed attention. What could i have possibly done to cause them not to work? How would i troubleshoot the problem?

 

did you try to reseat the bulbs? shouldve looked before you put it back in..

 

I would play with the wire. That is what I had to do. They got kinked somehow during the change over. Weird!

 

Ha I remember doing mine and i was rushed so i shook the bulb a little to much and i had to get a new one. Start with the easiest solution.

 

bad bulbs by chance?..IIRC if one goes out the other goes with it... not 100% though..

 

Maybe the jerk when i pried them out damaged the bulbs

 

Yeah thats what i was trying to say. FYI when I broke mine I broke the front right and back left so they don't both have to go out.

 

Buy a test light and see if you've got power going to them.

 

yea play with wires or try a new bulb

 

check the fuse...

 

Good to know cause i have to do mine too.

 

Did you put the right bulb in there?

 

Try taking the bulb out and twisting it 180 degrees. At least with my LED bulbs there is a positive and negative. I dont know if theres any risk to it, but i always change my corner bulbs with the lights on so i can quickly identify which way is the correct way.

 

They could have possibly never worked in the first place. I know I didn't realize my back (red) sidemarker lights didn't work until I went to replace them with clear sidemarkers and colored bulbs. You probably just need to replace the bulbs...

 

try your old bulbs first b4 u buy new 1's

 

cant be the fuse if the rears are still working ... theyre on the same circuit. but if those went out too, its gonna be the fuse under the hood.

 

check fuse first for sure.
