My car's decided to go ghetto on me:
Everytime I press on the brake, my parking lights come on. I have a brake light out, but for some reason, the dash light to tell me i have a light out isn't lighting up. Wiring or fuse problem maybe? Difficult to fix?

 

There's an indicator that tells you that a light is out ?

What else do I not know about the CL.

 

we have a light that says if we have a light out

 

WTF? must be the Limited Edition CL.


check your fuses. And if that turns up nada, check the wires with a meter to check for shorts.

 

check the bulbs in your tail lights.. make sure they're all dual filament and that they are all properly grounded (check for corrosion). Also be sure there is no foreign matter in the bulb sockets.

 

I have the same light she does

 

We really do. Its right below where it shows you that a door is open.

 

i'd go check that out....but it's way too cold to even step outside

 

I had a problem with this, I went through probably 25-30 dual fillament bulbs, because according to the dealer there was "water in the sockets" Soon as they "fixed" that, no more blown bulbs.

 

I have water in my back covers...is that probably the problem?

 

how in the hell did you accomplish that?

 

It was a sunny 75 here today!

 

lol it was 90 here today

 

...jerks

it was -12 today

 

ya was a very nice day, anyways there is that light that lights up when one of the brake lights go out, mine lit up

 

fuckin global warming.....

 

wind chill was around 12 today

 

wind chill is soo bad...

 

It's freezing now! At least when it's really cold, the salt won't eat away the car.

It's just making up for the warm weather we had last month

 

Wind chill is 4 degrees here today,

 

CL threads never go anywhere...

 

I honestly have no idea how I got water in the lights, but it's definately there. Also, I apparently am getting water in my trunk somehow hahaha, my car's a piece. Think that's a major problem though? It hasn't seemed to have done anything bad as of thus far, but maybe that's what's messing with my wiring now.

 

its one of the dual filaments, the light will only go on once you hit the brake, just a dummy light to tell ya to change ur friggin light bulb...took me a min to figure it out the first time i saw it.

have somebody hit ur brake...check bulb...change bulb....problem solved

 

yes.

 

What else? Is there a button for a rocket launcher on our cars I dont know about?

 

Wow, you really assume I'm dumb enough to not know how to change a light bulb - thanks. I'm more concerned that there's a wiring problem since my parking light come on when i hit the brakes.
