i just got my car back a few hours ago from the shop and i noticed when i hit the brakes one of the dummy lights comes on and it says, "stop" wtf does it mean? my 3rd brake light is out or something?

 

this happened to me twice already, sometimes a bulb will burn out but slightly and the distance between where the electricity has to touch and the broken part is very small and it will work while ur "stop" light on ur dummy cluster comes on.


go thru each of ur bulbs with a new one and do a process of elimination to see which bulb went out.



if that don't work, get 4 bulbs and change all of them at the same time, it may have been 2 or even 3 that might have gone out, it happens.


my 2 light bulbs went out 2 days apart from each other

 

put a brick on your brake pedal and get out and check :P.

Good luck!
