My 2006 driver’s side rear brake light is out.
It appears that *if* the light is not working that the entire assembly must be replaced (Part No. 81561-60700):
Or the switch assembly.
The lens assembly is a few hundred bucks. The FSM says to check the “bulb” (which is not accessible) or the bulb and the harness, but the Zen Koan of whether I have “Only one light always come on” or “Only one light does not come on” is beyond my comprehension. From the LIGHTING SYSTEM: PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE for my LX:
The FSM includes this:
1. Is there a way to test the harness?
2. Where is that stop light switch assembly? (Neither end of my harness or the harness that it connects to just inside the fender resembles that diagram.)
Anyone with experience they can share here?
