hey all

a friend today told me that my rear right taillight for braking wasn't working..

now I've checked all the obvious ones..
eg;
the bulb itself, the wire that looks like this\~/ is perfect and has no breaks
the wiring attached to it,
there isn't a fuse which connects to the rear tail lights according to my Honda handbook,

now the problem lyes in the breaking part itself, because my when i turn my driving lights on, the bulb will illuminate, but when i put my foot on the brake it will not illuminate as much as the left hand side.

just wondering if there is anything else i can check out, before i spend money taking it to a autoelectrician or Honda... :\

thanks heaps

my friend suggested that the bulb might be a stage 2 bulb and that the first stage still works and the second stage might not be.. and i should replace the bulb.. and see what happens.. so i might do this..

n e more clues ? :\

its just annoying because i replaced both rear taillights about 1 month ago..
