May want to check your dimmer switch, too - it could just be in the off position. You could have a shorted relay if it only happens when you turn your headlights on. From the description you gave, it sounds as if the instrument cluster has come unplugged. You may be able to reach up behind the cluster and plug it back in, but usually the cluster has to be removed to access the plug.
there is a brake switch under the brake pedal that is probably bad. Call an auto parts store to find out how much they cost. I had a 98 Pontiac Montana that did the same thing, the center brake light at the top worked but the two main ones didn't. I paid maybe 7.00 for the part and it took about five minytes to change, I am a woman who knows nothing about vehicles and I changed mine myself so about anyone could probably do it
This problem could be a wide variety of problems... it might be as simple as the brake lights are blown... all you have to do then is let down the tailgate and remove the 2 Philips head screws from the side of both taillights, you should be able to rotate them slightly and take them off, the bulbs are connected and have to be twisted slightly to remove them from the taillights... if that is not the proble then you might have a cut wire, blown fuse, or even more complicated wiring problems
Hey Mitch ==Probably a bad ground on the lights. Check it out. GoodluckJoe
It has 2 different flashers. One for the turn signals and one for the emergency flashers.
Chevrolet had problems with corrosion in these fixtures. Unit may have to be replaced, but check ground connection first.
You've got something wrong with your wiring, causing current to jump from the indicator circuit over into the brake light circuit.
Either warped rotors or drums can cause pulsating. Apply the parking brake slowly while going about 15mph and see if t pulsates. If it does, it is the drums that need turning. If not, it is the rotors that need turning.
If your vehicle has separate dash panel warning lights for brakes and emergency brakes, then the e-brake light being on while not engaged may indicate that the e-brake switch may be maladjusted or faulty. If the brake warning light is on, it may indicate a brake fluid leak, or in some cases, low brake fluid levels in the reservoir. If your vehicle has a shared warning light for e-brake and brake warning, all causes listed above could apply.
There is a grounding issue with the system, either that or one of the components is otherwise drawing more amps than the circuit breaker is meant to handle and it is tripping.
Sounds like a blown brake line . Get under the car to see where the fluid has leaked out and that will answer your question.
If the battery is good and the starter is good, then you must have a wire disconnected somewhere.
TRy changing your brakes and closing your doors while driving.
while your car is in park depress the parking brakes,turn the car off then on again it should be off.only until you diengage the parking brake.
Sounds like you need brakes. Have it looked at soon! Or maybe the fact its a Chevy that might be the problem
Yes.
If your brakes go out while driving, first shift the vehicle into neutral and then apply the emergency brake. If neither of these slows the vehicle, turn on your safety lights and get into the right lane.
I am sorry there needs to be more info.on this....are you saying when you have the flashers on and apply the brakes that the hazard lights go out??
if timing belt brakes while driving,will it damage motor.
If you want to turn off the running lights off try to engage the emergency brakes. I have a 2000 Montana and that works.
break away brakes in case you lose trailer while in motion
Hazard lights should only be used when your car is stopped or coming to a stop. Using them while you are actually still driving can be dangerous. Other drivers will be unable to tell if you are going to change lanes or get off the road because your turn signals or 'blinkers' will not work when your hazard lights are on.
on some cars the tail lights and brake lights are totally different bulbs gain access to the bulbs and have someone push the brakes so that you can determine which bulbs are the brake lights and replace the tail lights
Answerpull the bulbs on the left and make sure they are not in with the tits in the wrong position. That is lower teet in the upper slot of the socket.
