Doncha just love it when multiple posts pop up in different categories with the exact same subject, from the same member? Not only does it make it hard to help people, but it also gets shuffled up in the flow of troubleshooting/helping if both goes independent.

jvckc, welcome to the forum. Please help us help you by posting about a topic once. If one or the other is asked/answered then troubleshooting becomes harder because something could have already been addressed in the other post. This forum has helped thousands save gobs of monies (and not saved some who decide they cannot do whatever is needed so they spend thousands to get screwed at 'dealerships'). So I and the forum ask to post one topic at one location, to get the best help. It is why we are all here, to help fix our cars and save a whole lot of members monies. Good luck on fixing your CMSL (Center Mounted Stop Lamp).

If you check with GOOGLE, there is a company that repairs the third light for crossfires. Cadillac LED Replacement 3rd Brake Light, Third Brakelights For Escalade, ESV, Escalade EXT, Avalanche LTZ, Seville, SLS, STS, Chrysler Crossfire, Lexus SC 300 400, SAAB 9-5, HUMMER H3 Last time I checked, they offered a one year guarantee.

Late to the post but site is LEDFIX.com (Logan Diagnostics in Franklin Tenn) Just had mine repaired with the same issue. Returned priority mail the day after receipt for $125.... per Dave most of the problems with the light is caused by aa faulty circuit board.
