Hi All,

Both sides of the tail light won't ON during night. The bulbs are fine; the brake lights are good. The sensor seems fine, my head lights automatic ON if it is dark. Any idea on this issue?

Thanks,

Mike

Do the tail lights turn on manually?

What year car?

The tail lights turn on automatically, which is same for the head light. The head lights do turn on in the dark. The car is a 2000 Camry CE

Check to see if the front parking, side marker and license plate lambs work. If so, the issue may be in the taillight wiring as all these lights are on the same circuit.

The taillight wiring color is Green/Orange for power and White/Black for ground.

If none of the lights work, check the tailight fuse (TAIL 10A) and relay located behind the dash drivers side. If you lower your left and down and move almost to the corner of the drivers dash, the panel would be behind this area. If an ashtray here, remove the tray and look behind it.
