2015 brake lights

Hello All,

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me with my brake lights. My 2015 Tacoma has a right brake light that is not working. The LED board in the center of the light does not activate when the brakes are applied.

I have looked high and low for a replacement part I believed to be out there???? Obviously it may come to having to buy a new light assembly but I was hoping to not have to. Any help would be great...

 

Bummer, in all these years i havent seen this issue come up.

I assume u looked for loose wires already?

Im not sure how our fuses work, 1 for brakes... or 1 for each side..... u look?

 

Did you check all fuses and plugs?

 

Thanks for getting back to me. I checked the connection to the board but did not check the fuse.

I'm guessing if the fuse was out the whole light would not work? But I will double check not just in case....

 

Not sure, but it would be my next check.

 

Check voltage to plug, wiring and like eveyone else says fuses.

 

If you are a 2015 I'd expect you to be under warranty. Take it to Toyota and have them figure it out.

 

Didnt even think aboot that

 

Keep us posted OP. I’m Curious. As are others, I’m sure. Thanks!

 

You would think, but bought it used and it was already out of warranty.....I won't put as many on but it's my problem now. I'll try and figure it out and keep you guys posted. I appreciate you all chiming in.

 

If it was a fuse both lights would be out as well as the dash lights. I have blew that fuse before

 

Ok makes sense...I haven't had the time today to delve into it probably Friday....thanks

 

If it's just that one LED, it's a bad solder joint, most likely. I'd try the warranty route.
I used to work at the factory where those tail lights are made.

 

Aftermarket hitch wiring? Seen it before and it was where they connected to the brake wire.

 

No update as of yet my honey do list was long this weekend. Christmas lights are up tho....
