Default Sequence--Tail Light Problems

Last night one of my bulbs blew on my tail light and I replaced the bulb and my drivers side tail light worked after replacing the bulb. Now today I noticed that when I turn my turn signal on or mash the break none of the lights work on the passenger side. But when I turn on my head lights they all work. But on the passenger side of the car everything works. Anyone know what the problem may be?

Unplug them both and them plug them back in and check them. Some times they just need to be reset

Well on the way to work this morning they still did not work. So when I parked and turned my turn signal on it started to work and it still works. I think my car is kinda deminted. It's like my gas guage, sometimes it works and other times it says 10 miles to E.

I swear I was just about to start this thread. I have a problem like yours 2111. The outside light on the drivers side turns on but isn't part of the Sequence. I am going to try to un plug then re plug and see what happends. Let me know if you solve this one

Swap the sequencer modules and see if the problem swaps sides.
If it does its the sequencer module. Sounds like it was wired up wrong.
Is it a plug-n-play system? Who manufactured it?

What brand of sequencers do you have.
They are all not created equal.

And do you fill her up key on or key off.
It really makes a difference.
Those that dont understand the 4 modes
of the fuel guage do tend to think its nuts
but its operating like designed.
