Default Light Help

My brake light signal came on but all my lights are working properly. Does anyone know if theres a sensor or fuse that might be the problem? Or has anyone had the same problem?

Did you look to see if the third brake light is dead? Sometime's we overlook that third brake light,cuz were so concentrated on just the tailights. Plus when the lights are on there way out, it'll show up in your dash, cuz it probably comes on and off at times, and you dont see that cuz you're the driver

Check with the Lights on and ask someone to check the back while stepping on and off of the brakes.

where can I locate a set of rear tail lights for a 1999 GS300.
Please note I need the circular ones mounted on the trunk, the red lenses on these two lamps have faded so much that they look like you'r driving with you'r backup lights on.
I surprised no one driving behind me has not slamed there brakes thinking Im coming at them full bore.
Anyway, I could use a little help finding a good deal on these...and thank you for you'r help with this problem. DocO
