rear tail light ?

I had the "lamp out" light come on. So I checked and my rear driver's side tail light had the middle bulb busted. SO when I took the light fixture apart there is some moisture in there and the passenger side tail light is bone dry and all working. So I replaced the broken light plus the bottom back up light because it didn't look too good. Now they work but my driver's side rear turn signal doesn't. The light is on but no blinking and when you turn it on it blinks real fast in the cab I guess to let you know it's not working on the outside. Is there a special light for the turn signal? Advanced Parts said they were all three the same light.

On my '06 the backup is a 3057. the park/turn is a 3157NAK. The stop light is a 3057. So I'd say they're not all the same.

How do I find out the exact parts number? Advanced doesn't seem to have a clue as usual.

Those numbers are the exact part numbers for an '06. The part numbers for your model will be in your owners manual.

That's usually cause by a bad ground. Pull the lamps out of the socket, and spray them good with electrical contact cleaner, and blow them out with compressed air.

Find the ground wire, and make sure that connection is good, too. You can even add an extra ground if you think you need it.
