Sounds like bulbs need to be replaced--they most likely are double filamented-larger filament for tail lights and smaller for brake lights be a broken wire or a bad ground Depends on the car....most use 2 different circuits the top light going straight to the brake pedale switch and the tailights going through a control module THEN to the tailights. Check EVERY fuse you have in the car
replace fuse on the left side when hatch open, if the problem is the remote itself put lithiam grease on pad inside remote or tiny piece of tinfoil
I have had this same problem on two different Grand Cherokees. Over an extended period of time the latch mechanism get out of adjustment from the slamming of the reach hatch. It is very simple to adjust, but very difficult to reach. You must pull the reach hatch interior panel away from the door while it is closed. I don't think that there is any other way to trip the level. The small arm that trips the lock is held in place by a nylon keeper and must be adjusted. This is easy to do once you get the interior trim off and the hatch opened. Do not close the hatch again after the adjustment until you have tried the handle about a half dozen times.
The blazer must be in park for the rear hatch button to work. If you have the blazer in drive the button will not open the hatch unless it is in park!!! If there is still a problem maybe try checking the fuses! The actuator could be broken in the rear that releases the window so you can open the back. This happened to my 2003 Blazer and my neighbor's 2002 Blazer. By removing the back panel (high likelyhood the panel will break when you remove it) and replacing the actuator that could solve your problem. Both I and my neighbor would have had to order the whole actuator in order to replace the tiny plastic piece that broke. Instead we drilled a whole and rigged it with some tough wire. Works now but we both have broken back panels...even the dealership broke one. Good luck. SEE RELATED LINK for 1997 Blazer
You can get a diagram for your 2000 Dodge Caravan rear door hatch handle and most Dodge dealerships. Your local library will have Dodge service manuals with the diagram.
on sitting on them Hens on a farm lay eggs into straw and the hens sit on the eggs until they hatch. Hens in large chicken farms do get to have such a luxury. The chickens' eggs are kept under heat until they hatch.
On a 1989 Acura Integra hatch back the brake lights are reached through the hatch itself. The brake lights housing are on the rear of the vehicle. Unplug the bulbs and replace them.
The brake lights are accessed through the rear hatch. Find the panel on the rear sides of the car. Pop out the panel and access the brake lights. Replace the bulbs.
more often than not there are three brake lights. one at eye level on the rear windscreen and one either side of the hatch/boot. Hope this helps
No it is not illegal, as long as you have operational tail lights, brake lights, signal lights and a plate light.
You have to open the rear hatch like you would to replace the reg. brake lights. Screws should be accessible once hatch is fully open.
There might be a separate fuse for the lower brake lights ( just a guess )
The rear brake lights on a 1995 Honda Civic can be reach vial the rear hatch. Open the hatch in look for the plastic cover for the rear lights. Remove the cover to reveal the light plugs. Pull and replace the bulbs.
After you open the back hatch, you notice two compartments, one on each side of the hatch area, remove the panels to gain access to the bulbs.
Had the exact same problem. The wires in the umbilical cord connecting the hatch to the body were broken. See my post at http://www.focusfanatics.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2910989&posted=1#post2910989
you have to open the hatch, take all the plastic interior apart, just to get to your bulbs. its a pain.
access to the rear brake lights is inside the vehicle. Open the rear hatch and on the rear corners of the vehicle, you will see a small cover plate. Take the cover plate off and this will give you access to the lights.
check your rear light bulbs. it is a two filament light and one is burned out.
