Most likely they share the same bulb and you have a bulb burnt out.

Purchase the correct replacement bulb(s) first, before disassembling the vehicle. See sources and related links below for replacement bulb information and full light bulb part numbers list. Then consult your owner's manual for the headlight bulb lamp replacement procedure. As simple as it sounds, the owner's manual is the best place to start for bulb replacement instructions and illustrations. You may want to consider replacing both left and right at the same time in order to keep brightness and color equal (optional).

What does it mean when the rear brake light does not work and the turn signal flashes fast?

Usually when ones turn signal is blinking fast its telling you that a turn signal bulb (and in some cases a brake light bulb) is out. If it blinks fast when you turn on the the left signal the burnt out bulb is on that side of the vehicle (could be front or rear bulb so you'll have to check). And vice versa

Check your bulb, In the rear of the Generation 4 Ford Taurus, they use a single Dual filament bulb for the marker, turn signal, and brake functions. Chances are your bulb is burnt out and needs replacement.


What causes a Ford LEFT turn signal to flash fast no left turn rear light no rear left brake light?

The turn signal and brake light use the same bulb. When you get a fast flash, it is from a reduced electrical load being placed on the flasher unit due to a burned bulb. Replace the bulb and this should fix your problem.

Why would Only 1 brake light work and that's the one in the rear window any suggestion?

You almost certainly have bulbs burnt out. Answer 2: Check the fuses, as well as the bulbs. If all that is good AND your system uses the same light (Brake Light) for the turn signal, then check the turn signal switch as well (the brake light lead passes through the turn signal switch). If that is all good, or it is a different system, then check the wire leads running into the rear section; most have plugs that could have become disconnected.
