Default ? about tail light bulbs...

when you turn on your parking light, is only one bulb from one side supposed to be on or two? j/w b/c mines only turn on one on each tail light and plus whenever i step on the brake then the yellow icon comes on on the cluster...any clue? it's an 93 btw.....

Well...if you hit the brakes and the "dummy light" kicks on...somethings not right.

Maybe the brake and running bulbs are switched.

Bunch of stuff in this thread

that link helped a lot about the wattage issue...i think it's b/c of my homemade foglights. since the 93 didn't come w/ foglights i decided to use regular low beam light bulbs and jb weld it on to the bumper light housing and plus i don't know why i slice the wires that supposed to be holding the original bumper light bulb...or is it b/c i'm using them autozone l.e.d light bulbs on the tail lights??

Ummmm all of the above.

From what I know...you cant just slap in some LED's and expect them to rock out. Search LED tails and you'll find 30 or so threads with people who have done theirs. The fogs...again search and see what others have done.
