Re: Exterior Bulb Failure
SOLVED! First, thanks for all your help. After checking and re-checking all the bulbs and finding nothing my wife and I ran some errands. A guy pulls up and says that my left rear tail light is out. I pull over and we check it. It's fine and continue driving until someone else points it out. Pull over again and this time pull the bulb. Here is the fun part.....the bulb is slightly blackened and the filament in the bulb is broken in such a way that when the car is not moving the light works fine. But when underway and with the vibrations it doesn't work. Put the bulb back in...worked fine, drove it a bit...doesn't work. Now another question. It calls for a Phillips(but any brand will do) but it needs a "P21/5W. My auto parts store has several Phillips but none like this. They only have the American #, like 1157 or 2057, etc. They had no cross reference nor did my manuals. Any ideas as to the proper ones?
