    Good morning,

    I have an 08 taco and I changed the bulbs on the rear brake lights, yet the right side still doesn't work I haven't checked the fuses yet but wondered if anyone else has ran into this problem

    Checked the fuses under dash which was 10A it seemed to be working great.
    Unsure of the junction connection under rear of bed?

    Ill try it I just don't know why that one bulb could stop all the running lights on the rear not to work. But when I signal or reverse or step on the brakes it works just the right rear brake light doesn't which is even more weird.
