one broken tail light
my 95 aerostar has one tail light not working. The turn signal works and so do the lights.Its just the brake light that is not working. Already changed the bulbs and still is not working.Wondering if u had any ideas of what else could be the problem

beerguy- no magic in the Aerostar brake light system. I assume from your note that the other side brake light and the the "high stop" light on the hatch is working.
If so, can only be one of three things...
1. Try another bulb. Have gotten bad bulbs in a new package before.
2. Bulb socket is bad.
3. No power to socket.
Check to see that you have 12V in the brake wire going to the bulb socket while someone steps on the brake. If you do, and the bulb is known good, you have a bad socket. If you don't, there's a break in the wire somewhere.
Hope this helps. KenP
