the mountaineer has 3 individual light sockets that can easily be put into the wrong place when replacing the rear light assembly. Just take a Phillips head screwdriver and take out the light assembly to get access to and change the different dongles to the proper receptical.

Why do your brake lights come on when you put low beam on?

Your tail lights are designed to come on with your low beams so that drivers behind you can see you better. It basically assumes that it is dark out. Im assuming you are referring to your tail lights, as tail lights and brake lights are two differing brightness bulbs in the same lens housing. Your tail lights will come on with your headlights, but your brake lights only come on when you depress the brake.*Note: If you were referring to the actual brakelights, do not drive your car on public roads or your chances of being in a rear-end collision are very high. Take your car to a certified automotive technician and have them checked out.


Why does left tail light work but not right tail light?

actually that's what im trying to find out, weather or not i can get stopped if my left tail light doesn't trun on? it only turns on when i lock the car and it beeps, other than that when im stepping on the break it wont work. When you lock your car with a remote and set the alarm, the Brake lights flash not the tail lights, most likely you should check the bulb if it's only one side that's out, especially if the brake light is working. And the answer is yes you can get stopped by the police and get a "fix it" ticket.


Why would the rear running lights stay on after your Honda Civic 2000 is off and it's not the light switch?

What do you mean by running lights?? If it is the brake lights you are talking about, it may be the brake switch. this switch is on the brake pedal and makes the lightrs come on when you press the pedal. if you look to the very top of your brake pedal you should see this switch and a wire connected to it.(You may have to remove some of the trim, you may not. Im not to sure on this year. Hope this helps you some.


How do you change the signal lights in a 1995 Chevy S10?

im not sure on the 95 model about the front, but the rear signal lights should be the same bulb as your brake lights ( it just has two fillaments). you need to open your tail gate and just on the side (where the tail gate normally covers) there should be two screws, remove these screws and change the lamps. and it goes back together the same way it came apart ( just reverse the proccess

How do you change the emergency brake on your Honda Civic Si?

Not sure the year, but they prolly maintan the same items thru the years ( Im going off a 00 Si ). Undo the center console and remove it. Should be a few bolts holding down the brake assemble and the brake cables. Remove, replace and reverse.
