Hey Guys,
I have a ford tray back ute that keeps blowing brake globes .
This time I have replaced globes and have noticed both elements are lit in the same globe, tail lights and brake lights are in the same globe.
They also appear to be quite bright maybe because both elements are lit.
Any tips on what to look for would be much appreciated.
All the best
 
Bulbs inserted incorrectly.
Twin filament bulbs inserted where only single filament bulbs should be used.
Thanks mate, globes are staggered fitment and duel filaments for lights and brakes, indicators and reverse lights are single filament.
Found a rusty earth well hidden. Sorted.
Thanks for your interest.
All the best
