Hmmm, so for these older type Wira, the 2 bulbs can work as brake lamp? While some of the newer ones have only 1 bulb that works for brake, 1 more only for night lamp?

Normally is one bulb with 2 filaments. 21w/5w....

Which means they can double up as brake lamp and night lamp at the same time?

Usually are like that even VR lights are like that. Some cars of course have separate night light and brake light especially newer cars fitted with LED.....

Oh, can see there are 2 things inside the twin filament. I need to check mine and see. When I took out the bulb, I din't notice any bulb for signal light.

 

[vr2turbo]

Nope. Mine got 2 light bulbs in there. big one for brake light and small one for night light like this:

Pardon the rust. This was before I clean it. You can't get this socket anymore at spareparts shop.

As per bro. sanekit photo. Small bulb is tail light, big bulb is double filaments for tail and brakes....

 

[vr2turbo]

As per your photo, signal light on top.....lol

 

[sanekit]

As per bro. sanekit photo. Small bulb is tail light, big bulb is double filaments for tail and brakes....

Yes. and the big bulb is outside. signal inside.

For those fully lit even on braking, means the small bulb should light up as well? Because the small bulb is on the inner side.

Located somewhere else then.

Yes. and the big bulb is outside. signal inside.

I thought signal is on above these lamp? :hmmmm:

sorry. the small bulb is the night light. big bulb is brake light and night light. so at night, both supposed to light up and the big bulb 2nd filament will light up when braking.

So, for those that lit up on inner side upon braking, could it be that they changed their small bulb to large dual filament ones?

Fully lit means both bulbs are twin filaments loh......

 

[RENESIS VIII]

This is one weird case here. Instead of brake lamp at outer side, this one is at inside while outer side is not lit.
