Topic: Replacing Right Brake Light Bulb (Read 2478 times) previous topic - next topic

Have a brake light that is intermittent, and was wondering if anyone has replaced a brake bulb.  Took the cover off and attempted to press and twist the bulb out like on an automobile, but it seems like the bulb socket is different and I didn't want to break the bulb due to something I was doing incorrectly.

 

Which LTV do you have.  Most newer units have LEDs.  Also post a photo.  To do so click on preview under the quick reply box and you'll get an option to upload one.

The brake light that is out is the top red one on the right side of the rig...

Looks like they should be regular bayonet bulbs, not LED.  Should twist out, some corrosion holding it. Glass may break but you need a new one anyway.
Maybe be spray it with Some anti corrosion to loosen it up.
Buy a replacement bulb to see how it is held in place.

Success...  Bought some penetrating lube... a few drops, let set for 10/15 minutes, and the bulb came right out... just a little corrosion between the bulb base and the connector...

Thanks for the comments...
