    In my 2010 Prius the left and right brake light assemblies work fine, but the third brake light (high mount) wont light up when the brakes are on. I bought a replacement light and it still wont come on. Anyone else have this problem? any suggestions on where to start tracking down the issue?

    thanks,

    Pull the bulbs out of the third brake light and, with the vehicle on and the help of a friend, check if power is going to the light assembly when the brake pedal is pushed. If not, you have an electrical problem either in the light assembly itself or the wiring leading to the third brake light.
