fordedge2222 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 I recently bought a 2007 ford edge with the 3.5L. It had a tail light out but I didn't think anything of it. Went to change the bulb and realized it was still good. checked the fuses and all were good. Come to find out the center wire for the brake light and turn signal was not getting power. the running lights work but the turn signals and brake light for the left rear corner does not. The dash indicator for the turn signal lights up and flashes fast when turning left. The front blinkers both work on both sides. I checked continuity from the light socket to the cabin fuse box and it runs true all the way. I gave the wire 12 volts and the light illuminates then. Are the cabin fuse boxes known to go out every once in a while? Not sure what else it would be. I also have continuity between the blinker switch left into the cabin fuse box as well.

akirby Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 Check the CHMSL (center high mounted stop lamp). On my 2006 Fusion one tail/brake light stopped working when the chmsl went out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordedge2222 Posted October 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 If you're referring to the upper one on the rear hatch i just checked it and sadly it is working. I had high hopes for that being it. Thanks for the reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
