    I recently bought a 2020 tacoma and the tail light have clearly been moddedIMG_20231231_223831.jpg some how. Only half works on each, yes I've swapped the bulbs and it still is like this. Anyone seen this before and know how to reverse it?

    Thanks in advance.

    You’ve got the left tail light bulb sockets in the wrong spots. Swap them. Brake is the lower half. Turn signal upper half. Both run the parking lamp for a full C at night.

    Try turning your license plate frame right side up that might help
