Smile Is it a bulb or a fuse? 1999 XJ8 Vanderplas

This is good, since I have had far worse concerns. Don't you just love that amber light that goes off telling something is wrong. I especially love Check engine light. That's been corrected. My current "notice" is Rear bulb fail. As it happens it's true! The braking light on the drivers side isn't working. Now is it a fuse or a bulb. Just to confuse me a bit more which fuse compartment is it my choices are wide! 1-6

The fuse I could probably deal with the bulb.. omg

I think you mean you have a smart car that tells you something when something goes wrong
Enjoy your ride and the forums

Try the bulb, it isn't going to be a fuse.
