Voyager 2010 no brake light
 

Hi,
I have a 2010 Voyager and there is no brake light when I push the brake pedal.
No light at all during the day, but when night is coming the light in the middle of the back glass is working when I push the pedal (note that only this light is up, nothing on the right or left side appears).

1- I checked the bulbs on both sides and they are all right.
2- I checked all the fuses in the fuse box and they are ok

- I guess the brake switch is ok since I can get it working when the night is arrived. Except if there is a special contact in this switch for rear lights.
- Why the rear middle light is working only during night ? I have tried simulating night putting a cache on the dash board (detector in the middle on the top of the dash board) with no success, even the back glass light is not working.

So now I do not know what to check.

Is there any junction boxes to check? Or any other module?

If anybody may have an idea that would be really appreciated.

Thanks a lot,
Bruno

My suspicion would be a poor/corroded ground. Suggest posting on 'chryslerminivan.net'; a very knowledgeable group.

Thanks for your suggestion: it was a poor/corroded connection.

I fixed the problem for two of the three lights : I cleaned the connector behind the assembly as well as in the bulb holders, they seemed clean but I guess that something was corroded somewhere.
Moreover, one the two bulbs was visually correct (both filaments seemed new), but in reality there was a discontinuity inside the bulb (in te base?) for one filament. I changed the bulb and it was ok.

So the only problem remaining is the rear middle light which only works at night.

About the rear middle light, I solved the problem by replacing the rear center light assembly.

I thought the light was good because when I looked for the fault it was in the evening, and at night the lamp was fine.
After checking all the points of the circuit, I finally decided to change the assembly light and now it works correctly.
I don't know what was wrong, but maybe there was a component in the rear assembly light that was sensitive to humidity, temperature or brightness?
