High Mount Stop Light not working 2013 D4

[wardy1]

the high mount stop light has stopped working. Had the car serviced (very well regarded indy) the other day and they checked it and said there was no power to the light. Due to time constraints, they said there wasn't time to trace the fault.
My question is, is there a separate fuse to this light? It seems odd that suddenly there is no power to the light for any other any reason??

I reckon a search of the owners manual will give you the fuses fitted and their locations. From memory I don't think there is a specific fuse for the particular light but there is mention of tail lights.

I hope they are correct,changing the light is something you don’t want to do

Good luck with it

It’s not that bad lol. Lots of hammering and smashing required.

No separate fuse, but I believe on your model the feed comes from its own line from the BCM (separate feed to the left and right stop lights).

I have checked the owners manual and no, there doesn't appear to be a separate fuse. I'll try following the wiring down to eah tail light, I have noted that there is a fuse for each one but they are both working fine.

A shocking bit of cost cutting by the designer/maker having this light glued in instead of detachable by undoing a couple of small bolts or similar. If mine goes it'll stay gone as I doubt most will notice it's not working or care anyway.
