Tail lights are not coming on. brake lights work. blinkers work. at night, tail lights don't shine.head lights work.
Chevrolet Z71 4 WD 1500 Truck,
Just to be sure, check out the bulbs and sockets.
Make sure the two dots sockets (look into the base) is using two dot bulbs.
====
Check the single brake switch that activate by the brake.
If you has a meter then please check out the contact points.
Sometime this switch move out of aligment.
Dirt can also be part of the problem.
=====
I will apply 12V power to the brake switch socket and make sure the blubs light to rule out wire problem first.
Please post more infor on the comment window.
Replace the light switch, if I am right the dash lights will be out, if this is the case post back here to give you detailed instructions on how to fix. Thanks for using fix-ya.

Light switch on the dash is an easy fix just but the replacement switch and look at it you will see a button on the bottom of the switch with a spring on it. push this button down to remove the switch rod pull it all the way out like turning on head lights. then remove the beauty ring by turning it counter clockwise with a screw driver, once ring is off pull switch out and look at clips on the side, push with fingers to unlok and wiggle it out of old switch.install in reverse. And again if you need more help psot here, if it has both a light switch in the dash then remove the dash unit first if it looks burnt or that light shaft is loose replace it if it has a muti function switch replace it fecond. it cost more than the dash switch. the other guy had a good poit to so listem to what he said and Will see if you need more help. Thanks for using fix-ya have a good day and thanks for rating.
