It is a 97 328 bmw. And the problem is right where the bulb goes into the tail light at. There are two metal plates, (one for power and on for the ground) i assume. One of those plates has burned through and created a hole. But the fuse for the taillights never blew. count it be a short in the wire somewhere? a bad ground? an old tail light?


I was reading up and i found it to be common for the wires in the trunk lid to ge frayed near the bends. Could this be the cause?
its only the brake light on one side that this happened to.
