Three electrical problems....right license plate light, third brake light, and cruise control
I have replaced the thirds brake light and the license plate light - still dont work

I have inspected the wires running along the left trunk hinge no broken wires.

Why am I not getting power to those two lights???

HELP!

Did you DIY your lower control arms??? I did my lower ball joints and took 1 hr to do both sides. Not bad at all

ok I did my homework. Sounds like the rear SAM and I found a new one for $495.

Now what controls the cruise control? Does the from SAM do that? Or is that a different issue?

ok rear SAM is fine just some cut wires. I lookked at the wires but just no close enough. The cruise problem was fixed with a new switch at the column. Feel like a moron.
