Default High Mounted stop light inop

Hi

My 2004 VDP's high mounted stop light is not working. My formerly working cruise control went inop, and in doing some research the two issues might be related?

I checked the fuse, and seemed ok. replaced it anyways just to make sure, but still not working.

I believe the lights are LEDs, right? So they shouldn't "burn out". Has anyone run into this issue?

Well, ended up replacing the 3rd stop light with a unit from a junkyard. ($120.00; Dealer wanted $325). Works fine now. I think it was a problem with the tiny circuit board attached to the LEDs. Just a guess.

It did not resolve the cruise control issue though. Have to see what's going on there.
