Brake Lights Both, not working.....
Posted: Tue, 09 Nov 2021 1:56 +0000
Hi,
My brake lights (left and right) and tail light (in the tub pull down door), are out....
I checked the 10A fuse under the steering column, all good,
I checked the Brake Light switch (4 spade switch), and actually changed it, ($40 couldn't harm),
I checked i was getting 12V across the connector and yes all good between the large spade and the small ones,
All my other rear lights work, Indicators, Tail, Hazards, Reversers....
I noticed some adhoc wiring into the brake light harness at the foot pedal, which i assume is to get at the 12V, and i am wondering if this is the source of the problem, but before i try and unwrap the insulation tape, potentially for no evail.... is there any other checks i can do.
Appreciate any wisdom, thanks Simon.
