How do you trouble shoot '06 Chevy silverado stop lamps not working?
Check your fuses first. If those check out, pull out the tail light assemblies. Check the bulbs. If those check out, test for power at the connectors to the tail light assemblies with a test light. If you have power to the brake light circuit (with the brake applied), then the issue is in the tail light assembly. If not, go to the brake light switch located at the top of the brake pedal. Test for power at the input... there should be constant power to it. If not, there's an issue with the power supply, and you'll have to trace it to the fault. If so, test for power at the switch output with the brake pedal depressed.. if there's no power there, the switch is faulty. If there is power there, then you'll have to trace the wiring towards the tail lights to find the fault.
Brake lights don't work on 1982 Oldsmobile toronado?
You may have a bad brake light switch that is located behind the brake pedal. It is also possible that a wire is off on the switch. Check for power on the positive side of the switch and see if you have power to the other side of the switch when you touch the button. If you do, then you have a broken power lead to the brake lights or a broken ground in the trunk
