So I noticed it is not working when my wife was driving my Gladiator today. The taillights, turn signals, and brake lights work fine. It's just the center light. (Center High Mounted Tail Light)

So what's the first thing I should check? A fuse? Is there a wire that sometimes comes loose?

Any guidance is appreciated! I'll probably start by finding the fuse and checking it, until someone else gives me an idea.

Thanks in advance!

Ok, F20, F26, F28, and F29 appear to be exterior light fuses. Any ideas as to which might be for the CHMTL?

It's a known issue that these just stop working. They have faulty circuit boards.

3rd brake light a common issue?

I just replaced mine with this one:

Third Brake Light - 2020-2025 Jeep Gladiator - Dorman
