Um, just a thought...but you MAY have a blown bulb....Both lights work with brake pedal, but only one lit while sittin...need a bulb, Manny...they're cheap...so no big deal...

no, its not the bulb. i changed the bulb 4 times and i get the same problem(two 2 packs). the bulb cant be blown because its the same bulb that lights up with the brakes. where can i get a diagram of the wiring? maybe theres a short? i dont know...is there a fuse for this i havent found?

i dont know what else could cause that besides either a fuse, or a wiring issue. But i thought that only one fuse would control the entire light. However it isnt impossible that there could be separate fuses for each
