is this the style that is inside the car at the rear window?if so, there is a contact plate that gets burnt-kind of a pain to check though-remove the back cover of the brake light-then the assbly slides back toward you to come off-the peice that connects to is the peice that gets burnt-check both peices-the one you took off and the other one for burn marks on contacts-if burnt both peices should be replaced-the second peice is the pain though(rear hatshlef has to come out to replace)
