so whenever i press the brake pedal the 3rd brake light works when it feels like it. it usually stays off but i have also seen it turn on. i have no idea whats causing this... but i know the led's work. could it possibly be a loose wire or something? i also have another issue with my headlight covers, they are hazy/foggy on the inside, i dont know how to fix this. i would appreciate some help!

the 3rd brake light is a known issue apparently. i just had mine replaced under my extended waranty. otherwise infiniti wants close to 400 for the part/labor.

 

you got lucky it as still on warranty. i went to the dealer and thats exactly what he said around 400-500 bucks... i left. i guess im gonna have to troubleshoot and see what the hell is going on

 

Yeah i had the same problem too.. heres a link for the part its easy to it your self but i have a coupe. i just pop it out and replace. I believe on the 4d you have to take a few things out to get to it.

Try ebay for the light too.. I got my brand new for $60 shipped on ebay.

 

werd mmy 3rd brake light only works sometimes . but majority of the time it doesnt light up ..

im not spendin 400 on it though lol..

 

so i took a look at it, and it seems to be a cable or something on the light. i already have a new one, which i plugged in and worked. i have read thats its a pain to remove the right screw... they were right. when i finally got a screwdriver to reach the screw, it was at an angle so it kinda started to strip the screw so i stopped. i have no idea how to do this, except removing the back seat and all that crap above the housing for the light, or paying a ridiculous amount of money at the dealer to get it done....

damn... on that site its a lot cheaper than what i paid for...
thanks for the link though!

 

Try to secure the connector in the trunk. I've seen this be suspect (my car included). It connects right in the middle of the trunk underneath the light. Wiggle it around and it will probably cut in and out. Secure it in a position that keeps it on

 

yep tried that too... it came in and out but only when i wiggled it from the light end and not the connector end.
