Taillight not working ...

[MYLILSS]

ok, so I have a weird deal. my passenger side taillight stopped working on me. it wont light up with regular lights, or when you use the turn signal or brake lights, it is just dead. I have replaced all of the bulbs and still get nothing. the drivers side works perfectly. I don't get what it could be, and am not familiar with the s197 wiring and whatnot

thanks for any help y'all can give

Check the connectors?

Are they Secure? Did u see if they are getting power?

haven't had a chance to check for power. I am going to do that tomorrow when I have some time. all the connections look secure though. i'm hoping it is getting power and maybe the rear harness is shot or it is something easily fixed.

Are these OEM or aftermarket taillight assemblies?

Check all your fuses and for power to the tail light connectors, report back.

I actually had checked out all of that already. I went out to the car today to have a look at the harness and see if anything looked odd, and strangely enough the ground the bolts up in the rear had came loose and the bolt backed out, which was strange to me. anyways, long story short, I stuck the bolt back in and tightened it down and now the light works. I guess I should have dug deeper from the start lol
