Both brake lights are not working, after replacing both. The thrid light is functioning properly. The bulb on the passenger side the filament was dark, the other bulb filament was clear. is it a possibility of a blown fuse.

Hi chewsiee,

No, it is not a blown fuse. If it is, the 3rd brake light would not work.

Recheck the bulb, was the correct one used?
