Alright, so I’ve got a 2017 Mustang, and one of my tail lights just went out. I figured it’d be a simple fix, but now I’m not so sure. At first, I thought it was just the bulb, but I’ve seen some posts where people had wiring issues or even problems with the whole tail light assembly.
I’ve checked the fuse box, and everything seems fine there. I’m really hoping this is just a bulb swap, but with all the electronics on these newer Mustangs, I’m worried it could be more complicated, like a short in the wiring or even moisture getting into the housing. Has anyone had this happen? Should I just go ahead and buy a new bulb and hope for the best, or is there something else I should check first? I’d rather not spend my entire afternoon on it if it’s a quick fix. Any advice would be awesome, especially if you’ve had this issue on a 2017 or similar model!
