Product Questions & Answers

Ranked as the top full-size car by J.D. Power earlier this year, the Nissan Maxima proved to be an authority in its segment. It was the second consecutive recognition that the Japanese four-door sedan received from the Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study. The Nissan Maxima has been around since 1981 and was originally the highest-trim badge of the late Datsun 810.
There have been eight generations of the Nissan Maxima since the 1981 Datsun 810 Maxima. The four-door sedan has seen dynamic changes in its design, specifications, and dimensions. These influence the parts’ compatibility, especially if you’re looking forward to replacing electrical components such as failing tail lights. Like the headlights, Nissan Maxima tail lights can malfunction due to bad wiring, issues with the bulbs, and a blown fuse. Here are the symptoms you may encounter when one of these components fails.
Symptoms of a failing tail light
Driving without a tail light is a violation in most states. You can easily get pulled over for having a broken tail light. To avoid a ticket for a tail light violation, keep an eye out for the symptoms of a malfunctioning tail light.
Tail lights won’t turn on with the headlights
Tail lights that won’t turn on along with the headlights is an indication of a wiring problem. It could also be due to a burned-out tail light bulb, which is relatively easy to replace. If it’s bad wiring, the best thing you can do is bring your Nissan Maxima to a certified mechanic. Remember to check and test your tail lights every week to ensure that they are working properly.
Brake light doesn’t work
Electrical issues that cause your tail light to malfunction may also cause your brake light to fail. To test your brake light, you need a companion to either apply the brakes while you inspect the tail lights or stand outside as you apply the brakes. You may also test your brake light alone by backing up on a wall close enough to see the reflection of your tail light. The red light should turn brighter as you apply the brakes. You may inspect it using the rear view and side mirrors.
Backup light does not work when reversing
The backup light is part of the tail light assembly along with the rear turn indicators. The backup light is crucial as it warns other drivers and pedestrians that you’re reversing. You may inspect your backup light by putting the gear in reverse while the parking brake is engaged.
When to replace your tail light assembly
You don’t necessarily have to replace the tail light assembly in most cases of a burned-out bulb, bad wiring, or a blown fuse. However, if the problem was caused by a recent rear-end collision, the only solution is to replace the damaged side. Inspect your tail lights for any crack on the lens, in the housing, and on the mounting clips. Even if your tail lights are fully working, an evident crack can still get you in trouble in some states. Be sure to get it replaced as soon as possible to avoid inconvenience.
Finding the right fit
Nissan Maxima tail light replacement parts on CarParts.com would cost you from $30 to $390. You may purchase them as a solo piece, in sets of two, or as part of a kit. There are varying tail light designs per generation of the Nissan Maxima. To get the right fit, indicate your car’s model year on the filter tab. You may choose from the different color finishes under the “Shop By” section, including smoked lenses as well as chrome and black interiors.
