In my 2022 OB, a few months ago one of the turn signals starting blinking rapidly. I checked all the rear lights (turn signal, backup, etc.) and everything was working, so I ignored it. Now both turn signals are blinking rapidly, and I still can't find a light that's not working.
First, YES, I checked all the rear lights, including the wide light above the tailgate, and everything seems to be working fine. (Please do not ask me if I checked all the lights- I did.) I even popped out the rear light assemblies and checked each bulb, and they're all fine.
However, I can't figure out one thing: which lights in the back are SUPPOSED to light up when I brake. Right now, the wide light of the tailgate works fine when I press the brake, but nothing else comes on. Is that normal? I can't find a video or instructions of what the rear brake lights are supposed to look like - even among the 5 gazillion videos on YouTube - so I don't know if I'm missing something, and if so, what exactly.
Finally, for context: I installed a Uhaul trailer hitch last year with their wiring harness. I've used the trailer recently and all the connections worked fine. But I'm wondering whether it might have caused an issue, and if so, what it might be.
I'm trying to assess some possible issues before depleting my kid's college savings at the dealer service center. So any thoughts on any of the above would be MUCH appreciated!
