2003 X5 TAILIGHT AND BLINKER ISSUES
 
I had one tailight out and I replaced the bulb now both tailights do not work. Not only that, I also had my driver side blinker go out the same time driver side tailight.

Any insight on this issue? Is this some type of connection or fuse issue?

Thanks,

You are posting on the E70 board. :popcorn: Anyhow to answer your question, the E53 have a notoriuos problem with the rear light assembly and/or connectors corroding. I know several people including myself that have had to replace them. You can try to take off the connectors and scraping/sanding the pins or try contact cleaner. If that doesn't work, you may need a complete new light assembly. The fact that both the tail light and blinker went out tells me it is the connectors...
