That makes sense! Sometimes dirt and moisture get in there. I will try cleaning and checking the connectors first.
If you’re looking for diagrams, have you checked online forums? They’re often very detailed. You might find one specific to your car model.
I did some searching but didn’t find anything useful. Any recommendations on specific sites?
Try searching on YouTube! There are lots of DIY videos that provide step-by-step guides and even show wiring diagrams.
YouTube is great! I fixed my own tail lights just by watching videos. Many mechanics explain the wiring diagrams in depth.
I have to check that out. I always thought it was just for funny cat videos!
Don’t forget to check for any damaged wires. Having a short somewhere could cause issues and might go unnoticed!
Exactly! I had a problem with my lights due to a worn-out wire that was completely hidden. A multimeter can help you check continuity before you start rewiring.
I need to grab one of those. Do you recommend a specific model?
Just a basic digital multimeter will do! They’re fairly inexpensive, and you can use them for other car diagnostics as well.
These wiring issues can be frustrating, especially when you’re trying to enjoy a drive. It really pays off to check everything thoroughly before replacing parts!
You’re right, it’s a process! I tend to get lost in all the wires. It helps to stay organized while working.
Pro tip: Keep snacks nearby. As you troubleshoot, you might forget to eat, and a growling stomach can distract you!
Haha, true! I once got so frustrated I forgot I was hungry and ended up working late into the evening without dinner!
Wiring can be a pain, but it’s rewarding when you finally get it fixed. Keep at it, and don’t hesitate to ask more questions as you work through it!
Hey everyone! I’m looking for a reliable wiring diagram for my 2015 Honda Civic tail lights. Any resources or advice?
Check out this DIY guide I found! It has detailed diagrams specifically for the Civic. You should find it very helpful.
I can help you too! The Civic doesn’t have too many wires. Are you considering replacing the whole assembly or just fixing the lights?
Jumping in here! I’m also looking for a diagram for a 2017 Ford F-150. Seems like these things vary a lot between models. Anyone have visuals?
I found a great site for Ford manuals that includes wiring diagrams. I’ll share the link if you want!
