brake light problem!!

hi people , my brake light turns on but when i press my brake levers in it dosent illuminate , all the wires are connecting and the brake light switch is in correctly. I am gettin vex HELP PLZ..

 

The bulb is a 'twin filament bulb' meaning it has 2 strands which emit light.

One strand is for normal.
One strand is for brake light. - This one has broken, so it won't illuminate.

So you need a new bulb

 

thanks jeffro , thanks for ur help will go get one soon as. :good:

 

ahh for got to say is it a 12/v 35/w.

 

No worries, unscrew the bulb and it will be printed on it

 

And sometimes you can see the break in the wire inside the lightbulb so you can be sure its had it!
Dont let the lightbulb "vex" you up bruv!

 

some bulbs allow you to put it in the wrong way so the main light lights up under the side light. make sure its the right way around

 

thanks guys for ur reply's got new bulb now and no prob's. l8r
