    gandang hapon po mga sir.....this is my first post and i've been a lurker only for the past month and i found this forum very helpful and very informative ....mabuhay po kayo.

    can anybody po here sa forum help me on how would i know kung pundi na yung brake light o meron pa itong ibang cause na pinagmulan? sa fuse po ba o sa mismong bulb? yung right side kasi na brake light namin ay di umiilaw kapag nagprepreno. Gusto ko sana i'll do-it-myself na lang para ala ng gastos masyado.....adventure nga po pala yung ride namin.sALAMAT NA MARAMI IN ADVANCE.

    Dipende po sa bulbs ng sasakyan. I changed the bulb of a Sentra Series III parang peanut bulbs which costs 150/bulb.

    To add...a busted bulb will have any of this symptoms a broken filament, blackened bulb, broken bulb....maganda sana may continuity tester ka to check out which bulb is busted.

    Double contact bulbs sa rear, that means there should be 2 filaments inside. You may have busted one filament for the brakes. You will need to change the bulbs to get it fixed.

    Yes, there is a fuse for brake lamps. If you have a 3rd brake lamp, you may also use it as a guide.

    Yes, only the filaments for the brake lamps are busted. But you have to replace the whole bulb already.

    note note.. mura sa SM hardware center. halos kasing-mura nga ng banawe eh. :P

    bumili ako nung peanut bulb for 3rd brake light sa banawe, 40 pesos. yun pala meron sa SM, 2 for 50 pesos. at meron pa, 2 for 100, LED na..

    you might want to consider using LED bulbs instead of normal ones. mas mahal, pero bihira mapundi ang mababa ang use niya ng kuryente.
