Q: Tail lights not working but driver side does work
I just bought the truck knowing it needed a tune up but I changed my tail lights and the passenger side doesn't light up at all even before I changed it but before I changed it the break lights worked. Now none work on passenger side. Is this a fuse problem or a wireing problem?
