    I am experiencing an issue where when I turn my headlights on, my taillights nor brake lights work. The brake lights work fine when the headlights are off. This happened once before about a year ago, but it went away after 1 day. Anybody have any suggestions where I should start trying to diagnose this issue?

    Welcome! I would start with checking the fuses. THen maybe check the wires in the engine bay, and see if any are cracked/broken

    I had the same problem. It's a problem with the connection. I YouTube it and found that if you take some tin foil and put it inside of the light connector the problem disappeared. Took all of 10 mins to fix
