90 XJ No brake light while running lights are on
Hello , I am new to the forum. I recently purchased a really nice 1990 XJ 4X4. My passenger side brake light is not working when the running lights are on. But works when the running lights are off.
I tried replacing the socket thinking it was bad. But that did not work obviously. I don't know much about the wire system for the jeep as this is my first one. Although I have learned quite a bit over the past 4 months of ownership. I really love this Jeep and hope that there is a cure.

See what bulbs are in the sockets. Should be 2057. Needs to have two "nubs" on the bottoms and the right nub on the shaft to allow it to fit in the socket correctly.
