Hello,

So I have a 2015 gt PP with installed diode Dynamics front switchbacks and marker bulbs. I remember seeing a post a long time ago that the DD switchbacks we're causing tail light issues. DD had sent me newer updated switchbacks but one of them went out and I have been experiencing right rear taillight issues again. I was seeing if anyone else is experiencing their tail light randomly going out. Usually I can get it to turn back on by turning the lights on and off. Brake lights and turn signals still work. Thanks guys

This happened to me when one of my front switchbacks fell out. Once I reconnected it no more issues with the rear light.

If your switchback is out/not working you'll probably have to replace it or reinstall the factory bulbs to resolve the issue.

My far right tail light segment is intermittent. All stock components.
:shrug:
Sounds like the brake light LED or board itself is going bad then. Hopefully under warranty still as that is an expensive piece.

Wouldn't hurt to check connections though. Maybe a loose wire or bad connection.

Where is that board located?

The board is internal to the tail light assembly. If you are still under warranty, it will cover it.

There's no bulbs, it's all LED.

I'd say take a picture/video of it and then of your VIN in the same video so they cant deny it isn't really happening lol.
