My brakes and turn signals work fine but no regular tail lights. Has anyone had this problem before?or does anyone have any auggestions.... I really don't wanna have to take it to a shop tomorrow if someone knows or has any ideas. I was thinking it May be a bulb but I'm not sure which one it would be and my other guess was there's a short some where bu idk qwhere to check _____________________________ 1994 Civic DX Black Catback Exhaust Headers DOHC ZC motor swap Short Shifter AEM SRI Strut Bars-Front and Rear Lowered Full Camber Kit Post #: 1

Otherwise, check for a loose (black) ground wire in the rear. < Message edited by RonJ -- 5/5/2008 9:07:14 PM > (in reply to sboarder97km) Post #: 2
