Left Breaklight Malfunction!

I get a warning saying "Left Breaklight Malfunction" but I've checked several times it's fine. Thought maybe it's contact is not constant but can't tell cause everytime I check it's fine.

Any suggestions?

Mine did the same when the bulb was going out, but not burnt yet. I just replaced them all.

Could try swapping the bulbs from right to left and see if it follows the bulbs or the housing?

mine did this for about two weeks, it'd come on and off sometimes when i hit a bump.. it could be the housing unit. i took the bulb out and kinda played with the housing unit pieces that clamp onto the bulb with some pliers, and turned the bulb and just put it back in... no problems since then.

LOL...Brakes... sorry


I'll try and wiggle and swap them out. My car is a bit bumpy so I can imagine it getting loose sometimes.
