Tony, I rotated the hot burning bulb, and that appears to have solved the passenger side outer brake light problem - very strange, I have had 3 240's and never gave a thought to how the bulb fit into the socket, since it fits either way. The drivers side connector can be moved in a certain way to make contact on the printed circuit board and the back up lights will now work, but it looks like the connector will need to be replaced - there is some heat damage on that connector. The 5W passenger running light is still out, do you know if that one is linked to the left side as the back up lights are? Any suggestions on replacing that connector? Thanks
