I was wondering if anyone had this problem before, recently my 3rd brake light when out, and now at night, the running brake lights are out as well? The brake lights work when brake petal is pressed and blinkers works but no running lights on the brakes. I checked all the fuses and they are fine, there is no power going to running brake light wires. I'm thinking maybe a relay but I have no manual, could anybody help???

Haven't been driving at night to avoid major ticket for tag, 3rd and running lights out.

 

what year... if it 03/04 have you checked the actual bulbs?

how do u know there is no power...

 

its a 03 g35 sedan, my audio tech friend checked fuses under front door panel and under hood, all seem to be fine, and tested power and bulbs with a power tester, and no current going to running bulb light and tag light for some reason??? any trunk relay switch or something else???

 

have you tried replacing the bulb?

Normally my route for bulbs is. Bulbs, fuse and then wiring. Don't jump the gun and have it something simple. Even if your bulb looks good, try a NEW bulb, since your 03 has bulbs. newer 05+ have LED tails.

 

checked and replaced bulbs, still not working. I tested bulbs, fuses and all ok, I checked wiring and still not power going 2 running brake light. Anyone have fuse diagram or online manual?

 

emergency button. or maybe a blown relay

 

--Update--
So a fuse was blown in 3rd fuse panel behind battery and windshield, when that fuse was replaced, it was instantly blown or in a few seconds, what is going on? Could it be bad wiring or not grounded? I do have pioneer dvd/navi head unit and 2 kicker 12", could the system be a problem or HID headlight kit?

emergency button or maybe a blown relay, how can i be certain?
