Hey everyone!

Someone told me my brake light was out and after looking, I noticed someone hit me while I was parked and put a dent in my truck and some cracks in my rear driver light.

Everything works fine, signals etc but my brake light doesn’t work anymore and I’m not getting any alerts on the dash.

It’s a 2022 Ram 1500 and they are led ‘s so what troubleshooting can I do before having to order a whole new light?

Thanks in advance!

The LED taillights either work or they don't. You could try testing for voltage at the plug but your probably looking at a new tail light. With it being cracked moisture/water is going to get in and trash the tail light eventually.
