License plate light out on one side only

Asked by Pamela Jul 26, 2021 at 07:09 PM about the 2008 Kia Amanti FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I replaced both bulbs and one does not light up.  I switched the bulbs and still
the one side does not light up.  Could this be a fuse or could it be the wiring?

1 Answer

A fuse is not the issue. Probably the socket is corroded and needs cleaning. A damaged wire is also a possibility. You can use a multi meter to check for power and ground at the light bulb socket.
