Tailight problem.

My tailights all light up when I brake, reverse, or use the turn signals. But one of them does not light when the car is just in drive.

You should check or have someone check your wiring.

Most likely means one of the two filaments in the bulb went out. Just replace the bulb.

I sometimes get this problem with my SuperWhites in the back, but if i knock on the tailights the problem is gone.

Had that problem too. I just replaced the bulb and everything's been fine since. I think I remember looking at the bulb that went on and off on it's own...seemed like there was some sort of debris rolling around inside it...which might've caused it to go on/off on it's own?
