What is the purpose of a three way light bulb?
The three way light bulb has two filaments with one common pin. The common pin is connected to the shell of the base, while the other pins are at the center and the ring. The three way fixture then provides four positions; neither, one, the other, or both of the filaments receiving power. This way you can adjust the brightness. Maximum power is always the sum of the other two power settings; such as 50-100-150, 30-70-100, etc. Also, a very common light bulb which has two filaments is used in the "stop and tail" lamps on cars, trucks and many other vehicles. Its two filaments are: 5 watts for the tail light function and 21 watts for the stop light (or turn signal) function. Each filament is connected to its own separate pin inside the insulated center of the shell of the base of the bulb. From there, via the bulb holder, the 5 watt filament is connected to the light switch which connects it to the positive side of the battery for the tail light function. Similarly the 21 watt filament is connected to the stop light switch - operated by the brake pedal - which connects it to the positive side of the battery for the stop light function. The other side of each filament is connected directly to the metal shell, so the shell is the common connection point to the negative side of the battery. Some of the newer versions of this bulb have a plug in base with four terminals, of which two are common, making it impossible to mis-socket this bulb.

Why do brake and directional lamps work but tail lamps dont on 1996 Olsmobile?
Check to see if the parking/dash lights work - if not check the fuses Could be burned out bulbs - they are double filamented with the larger filament being used for tail lights Could be a bad headlight switch

behind the drivers seat in an air manifold under a plastic cover... but more often than not your problem is in the directional switch as it also controls the brakes and the directionals on single wired units... replace the directional switch

If a light bulb is burned out and the switch is on are you still using electricity?
A standard filament bulb works on the principle that it gets hot and glows when a current is passed through it. If the filament has burned out (blown) it is open circuit and no current can flow. Therefore you are not using any electricity even if the switch is still on It may still use power if it is a lighted switch. Find a licensed electrician at www.contraxtor.com
Where is the flasher located on a 2001 Saturn?
The turn signal flasher is incorperated with the Hazard lamp switch. The switch must be changed,then the directional lamps will work correctly.
