Why would anyone dislike this. They’re literally just helping y’all out
ibrxhim MMA Because they didn’t give you all the info. But I get it ... it’s not a diagnosis video. Fuses don’t just blow for no reason, a fuse is a circuit protection device. It blows when there is higher than normal amperage for that circuit, basically some type of short. So the thumbs down is for not mentioning that in the video 👍
I have a Jeep Wrangler Sahara. I’ve been stressed for weeks trying to figure out what was wrong with my car called the dealer many times they said they were going to charge me $179 each just to run tests not including the actual maintanace. I’ve been looking on UA-cam couldn’t find anything and finally found your video and it only cost me $4.99. Thank you so much!!!
I've watched a lot of your videos and this guy should be your Bob Villa. Always feel encouraged and actually interested in what he's telling us.
One thing to remember is that once one brake bulb is blown. It usually means that the other side is about to blow out as well. So always replace all brake light bulbs. Also remember to replace your license plate light bulbs at the same time. Due to they get dark and get ready to blow as well.
simple video, great way of explanation so easily understandable. thumbs up! ;)
Miss you guys posting videos everyday! Great work btw 1aauto!
the question is what blew the fuse in the first place ? this was not mentioned or address
Very good job A1 auto repair thakns for your time
I really like your videos, thank you.
Pete Morales Thanks for watching!
Thank you for posting this video. I just came across this video and I'm having alot of the same problems. So I'm gonna check the fuse because I changed the bulbs and I'm still having the same issues.
Useful information.
Great video. Thx a lot 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Thanks
Thank you!
Thank u for this
Thanks..about to diy
I'm having the same issue in my car, only I check all corresponding fuses and they are all OK and I also put a new bulb. They work when I press the brakes, when I turn on my emergency lights and when I activate my alarm but the nighttime running light on the left rear just won't illuminate. What can it be? 😢
Head lights (low beams) went out on 2017 Ford Escape. First one, followed by the other the next day. We changed the bulbs, and less then 4 weeks later, same problem. Brand new bulbs, first one went out, followed the next day by the other. Haven't checked the fuse, but if the fuse was bad, the new lights wouldn't have worked at all, correct? They did work for a few weeks, and then went out again. Any suggestions?
No power on both sides of fuse but not blown headlights still work ? when tested could it be a fusible link/relay ?could a burned bulb/disconnected cause alternator not to charge battery in 2014 Cadillac ATS AWD 3.6 premium?
How about when the harness for the bulb is burnt to the point no contact to bulb or if turn signal switch is fried
Could you have a bad connection, instead of a few or bulb burning out? I changed the bulb to my back light and the light worked then all the sudden didn’t. What do you recommend?
Also - good video!
Thanks 😊👍
Got a 2015 Ford Explorer and compressor locked. Checked all fuses w/ multimeter and only fuse # 62 (air conditioning clutch) doesnt have power. I put a new fuse in and multimeter doesn’t beep still/ no power. What could be the culprit and what should be my next test from here? Much thanks
How do I test for power Going to my blower Motor on 2002 Chevy s10 blazer
Really it is a quantum leap thanks
I have an issue with my front passenger headlight I have seen the video but I have a subaru 2006 outback impreza is it possible that the wire could be bad
What if I have a brake light that's also a turn signal indicator in the same bulb and the brake light part work but not the turn signal? I've replaced the bulb, same result. I checked all the fuses and they are not blown and check out as working correctly with multimeter. Car is 2005 Ford Five Hundred Limited. I've looked for a turn signal relay but can't find one. Some online sources say it's part of SJB and has to be programmed by dealership. Any help?
Yeah my Jeep Commander is having the same problem but on the right side and everything works back brake signal light hazard reverse works but running light is not neither the front or the back I guess I'm going to try but you just did and see what happens I already changed the light bulbs and because one of them looking like it was too dark blown if you will and so let's see what happens thank you very much
You rock with videos
Fantastic
Hi, thanks so much for your video. I have a concern! When i mash the breaks, the lights on my rear left side works but the light on my right side (the driver's side) doesnt. I have replaced this bulb at lest three times..it works for just a very little time and then its out again! any help or sugesstion?
did you ever find out why ?
What if your brake lights are out on the drivers and passenger side in the back?
Whats the name to that fuse i have same issue but on a 2006 ram 1500
As a mechanic a bad fuse was the issue but what caused the fuse to go bad, its rare that fuses just out, something actually caused that fuse to blow and that’s the answer we need. Great video

Awesome, thank you! This helped me out! Though ironically replacing my brake light was more of a hassle than if it were a fuse issue 😅

Park lights front and back off/bumper marker light and Dashboard lights off. Mazda BT 50 Pickup 2008 spec.
If everything fails go down to the bottom of the dash and check the number 10 fuse it should be a 7.5 and just replace it with a 30 amp if your back lights come on and if your top brake light is off ..if your fuse in the hood good. that means the fuse is blown ..on the number 10 inside the car ..or replace the top back tail light ..if it's a Honda anyways sure work on most cars
2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Both tail lights don't work... Where do I start? Since both are out, my guess is it is something that controls both rather than just bulbs...
On my 2007 RX, the front headlights sometimes don't always come on together. Either just the left, or just the right. But it's never a case of both never coming on together. Any thoughts?
I’m having this same problem

Or bad unit
