Dorman Tail Light Circuit Board replacement 923-012 - direct-fit repair, restores brake/turn signal function

The Dorman 923-012 Tail Light Circuit Board is a direct-fit replacement that restores tail lamp function by swapping in a new, ready-to-install circuit board for compatible vehicles.

If your tail light has failed because the stock circuit board melted or burned, this replacement board provides a straightforward repair without replacing the entire tail lamp assembly. Dorman designed this part to match the original electrical layout so it plugs in where the factory board did, reducing repair time and parts cost. The board is intended for vehicles listed in the product’s confirmed-fit tool; always verify fitment for your exact year, make, and model before ordering.

How will this circuit board fix a burnt tail light?

This board replaces the damaged printed circuit board inside the tail lamp housing, restoring the electrical pathways that power brake lights, turn signals, and running lights. By replacing only the failed component you avoid the expense of a full lamp assembly while returning full functionality.

• Direct replacement of the vehicle’s original circuit board layout
• Re-establishes proper electrical contacts for all lamp functions
• Minimizes cost by repairing rather than replacing the entire tail light

How difficult is installation for a DIYer?

Installation is designed to be simple: detach the tail lamp housing, remove the defective board, and plug in the Dorman replacement. Basic hand tools and a few minutes at the workshop are typically all that’s needed, but follow vehicle-specific instructions and safety precautions when working with electrical connectors.

• Disconnect power or battery before beginning work
• Remove tail lamp housing per vehicle instructions
• Swap out the failed board and secure connectors; no soldering required

Will this part fit my vehicle?

Fitment depends on your vehicle’s year and model. Use the site’s garage tool and Confirmed Fit bar to check compatibility. If you see a blue “i” icon, hover to view any fitment notes or exceptions specific to your vehicle.

• Enter vehicle details in the product’s fitment tool before purchase
