Default Hey guys

My 2008 crossfire is having problems when ever i have my head light on my left break light will stop working but when i turn it off and then back on again it works if i leave the lights off. When i have the lights on the bulb works but when i press the break the left bulb goes out comepletely then if i let it go it turns back on. I changed the bulb when someone told me my tail light was out. Any suggestions?

You likely have an open ground to that light assembly.

You either have the wrong bulb in there and it is rotated 180 degrees or you just have the wrong bulb in there.
Check the bulb number, just because it fits does not mean it is correct.
It has happened before.

Attached is a Snip-It of the Exterior Lamps for the Crossfire. Make note that there is a warning to use only the recommended lamp bulb in the Crossfire. These cars are "persnickety" when it comes to using only recommended parts.

I have a 50/50 feeling that we may never hear from this guy again. Right type of question and the right age group, I hope not though. Time will tell.
