Mazda 3 rear and front right lights

[Patrick Acierto]

I have a 2004 Mazda 3. I did not notice my rear right brake light was out until I was pulled over. When i turn on my lights, my front right turn signal light is out and so is the back right brake light. When I signal to the right, the blinker light works perfectly. And when I press on the brake pedal, the both brake lights turn on just fine. I tried replacing the bulbs and I still have the same problem. I’m assuming there is a problem with the wiring but I dont know where to start. Anyone know how to fix this? I’m getting pulled over at night too often….

I would suspect a bad switch, since all lights seem to be getting power its not a fuse. But since you describe a no-power problem when the switch is in the neutral position, but you get power on the right, I would tend to think its the turn signal switch.

I don’t envy the person replacing that.
