If Diamler hasen't messed that up too, the pre 1999 GC's have the bolts that hold the tail light on visible when tail hatch is lifted. If so, remove them, lift the light off, turn it over and there's the bulbs. Pop it out, replace it and put it back together. Good luck!
Problem?
Check out this website..this is how i fixed mine http://www.2carpros.com/forum/2001-jeep-grand-cherokee-laredo---brake-lights-not-working-vt4814.html
my fuse panel (with the descriptions) is gone off of my 2000 jeep grand Cherokee Laredo, how to i get a description of what all 32 fuses control on my jeep?
They aren't. The brake light circuit is not connected with the headlight circuit.
Remove the wheel; remove the brake pads and caliper; the rotor should slide off of the lug bolts.
brake relay or sensor
Failed circuit board on the back of the light.

I also have a 2000 grand Cherokee Laredo. Just changed front pads, and it is a torx bit T45. I couldn't find this answer on the web, so I bought several sizes to find out.
Mine seems to work fine.
The 1993 Jeep grand Cherokee brake light switch simply plugs in and out. The brake light switch is located beneath the dashboard on the drivers side of the engine compartment.
The brake pads might not be adjusted properly. The brake pads can be too tight and have contact with the rotors.
