You probably have a bad alternator and a weak battery. I know it sounds strange, but I had the same thing on my 1996 Pontiac Grand Prix. The reason is, there is a big drain on your electrical system when you apply the brakes, ie: taillights, anti-lock system, etc.
So, the car stalls, and in my case wouldn't restart.
At the least, go to auto zone and have it tested....you'll be surprised.
Usually the fuse is going bad.
It would be against the law for a motor manufacturer to fit a light which could cause the brakes to fail.
The first motorcyles were literally bicycles with a motor strapped to them. The brakes were bicycle brakes. The early true motorcycles had drum brakes in the hubs that were developed from the motor car industry; as were disc brakes. My guess for you to answer this question all you need to do is figure who build the first motorcycle... I would like believe that they had someway to stop the first bikes rather then just putting their shoes on the ground.
Best bet would be your friendly local Chevy dealer parts and service dept.
My 98 LS has 4 wheel disc brakes. I would not be surprised though if some have drum type brakes in the back - maybe dependent on which motor the vehicle has.
I would try the window switch first , but if you are going to replace the switch then you will see how to replace the motor. You would have to take the door panel apart after that its easy.
You would adjust the brakes on a vehicle with abs brakes the same way you would adjust the brakes on a vehicle without abs brakes.
Bad switch? stalk bad wiper motor? bad low speed winding
and to explain a little more the brake system is electric assist, they are not fully locked i can still drive it but my rear brakes are doing all the work, how would i know if its the calipers or the accumulator motor?
It should, it is the same generation of Venture van.
Yes
it may not be illegal, if it is a motor bike then the answer is yes it is illegal. if its a bicycle then i would say no, but either way it is not a SMART,RESPONSIBLE OR SAFE THING TO DO.
