95 accord with lights off it has a slightly dim passenger brake light .with head lights on passenger brake light is on with no foot on pedal.any thoughts thanks

 

I'd start with checking the bulb socket to see if there is rust or something else going on inside it.

 

or wrong bulb

 

turns out napa gave me 3496 that is backwards from the one that is on the other side anybody know the correct bulb for the 95 Honda accord station wagon

 

owners manual maybe

 

[QUOTE=jimbeem;373183]turns out that the correct number is 3496. Napa gave me a Wagner 3496 but it's backwards from the 3496 burnt out. Why do you think that is I shaved off the ***** and turn it the other way it works it's just backwards

 

Any evidence that there's been any splicing of wires to that socket? Maybe wires were swapped from a repair??

 

I should tell everyone that I found out what the problem was. The 3496 bulb that Napa sold me was made in reverse. I went to Bond auto and they sold me a 3496 that works just fine thanks for the replies

 

Wow, I would think that a reversed bulb would have a different type-number.

 

Was the Wagner bulb made in China? I guess your Honda doesn't speak Chinese.
