Motorhome taillights

I have a Class C motorhome and I tow a Geo Tracker. Have never had any problems with my lights in the past. When I recently hitched everything up for my trip to Deming, my left turn signal on the rear of the motorhome was not working, even though the front blinking light on the cab was. I checked the three individual bulbs in the fixture, nothing seemed amiss. Someone suggested it could be a fuse, but if that were true, wouldn't ALL the lights not be working? Anyone out there had this problem, or have any suggestions? HELP!!!!!!!!

Marlene, your rig might have separate fuses for each turn signal, etc. Your fuse box should have a diagram (usually on the inside of the lid to the box) showing what each fuse is for.

perhaps the bulb is burnt out, if one of my bulbs burn out the other one still works.
They don't all go out, just the one thats burnt out.

Do the bulbs come on when you have lights turned on or when brake is applied?

Just plain do NOT come on - Vickie P.....right tail light works normally, but that left one is just plain DEAD! I've looked in my RV maintenance books, no luck. Guess it's time to visit a RV repair shop and ask a few questions. I agree, Retiredhappy, about the fuse and will check that out when YOU come to visit (grin).
