Default Help morimoto taillight went out

One of my morimoto rear lights went out yesterday….signal inside the car started flashing super fast. Previous owner installed them about three years ago….any ideas on best course of action….?

Pull your light and check the connectors.

My rear right stopped working last week. Remove the taillight and reset the connector. Works like new. PS Cole is great to deal with. Helped me with a LED side marker.

The plastic clips on those connectors are known to break, its possible that the previous owner installed the light and broke the connector and it took 3 years for it to shimmy loose. I'd start by checking connection.

Wonder if it was the connector working itself loose after all.

I hate when they don't post an update lol
