Every light works but the tail lights!
 

Hey guys, glad to be a part of the forums! I decided to join on a whim, I wonder if anybody can help me with this weird lighting problem :) It's a 2002 Honda Civic and every light works except the tail lights! Soon as I switch on the headlights, nothing! Any ideas? Tell me it's an easy one!

Thanks in advance, I posted this in the General Chassis, Lighting, Autobody, Structure Glass Tech as well.

Edit: All fuses have been checked and are good.

uhh...maybe both left/right light bulbs are burnt? :eek5:

did you check it anyways?

All bulbs have been tested and work :)

Give us some history on the vehicle.
When did this start happening?
Did both of them just DIE outta nowhere?

Check contacts/bulb holder. Use a DVM and check to see if you're getting voltage coming from the contacts.

If there is, something is funky with the contacts. If there isn't, check the wires.

is it the brake light or the lights when you turn on the headlight that doesn't work?

does your stereo work or did you have work done to your stereo recently?

Take a voltmeter and just check for faulty connections. The heat last week might have done something to the wiring.

damaged wire harness?

could be a short in your wire somewhere
