Hello Ram friends!

Out of sudden my brake light is not working. funny thing is that the third brake light is working but in the rearlight / tail light both Left and right side is not working.
There is also no any message.
Already checked:
- Fuse
- Measurement voltage (there is no voltage at the brakelight when the brake is pressed)
- Turn manually the lights on with obd device (everything work from obd device only the two rear brake lights)

Thanks for your help!

Unfortunate no one replied to this. I have the exact same issue now. 2006 Dodge Ram 1500, 3rd light works, brake lights do not turn on. hazards work, blinkers work. Hopefully my reply motivates someone knowledgeable to respond.

Check voltage, at rear of Light connections, insure pwoer is coming ot the light, in quetion when pedal is depressed. if no voltage, the chase the wire, through the loam to next junction point and test there, aas well.

strt at teh source and work outwrds,

simply test light is all you really need., jsut looking for voltage.

Good advice. I did everything myself but start tracking circuits. I just dont want to do that part. I dropped it at the mechanic and his electrical guy is looking at it today. I will share what they find out.
