Tail light night illumination not working
Hello everybody! I've got an '04 LS430 and recently I started getting condensation in the passenger side tail lamp. The other day I noticed that it doesn't light up when the headlights are on. It lights for braking, reverse, and turn signal, but not the sort of low illumination at night. The other three sections of tail light across the car work just fine all the time. Any ideas of what the fix is? Could it be related to the condensation in the light? Thanks!

I'll take a picture tonight and post it. It's the whole right assembly that isn't coming on, but only when in park mode, and the brake light works just fine. I'll post that picture to clarify.

Sorry, it's a full on lightning storm out there. I'll take the picture tomorrow night for sure. So if it's a problem with the LED, the whole assembly needs replacing?

So the last three nights I've gone out to take a picture, it's been working. It must be a short or something, but it's a little hard to duplicate when it behaves on its own terms! Anybody know why they get condensation in them and how to fix that?
