Want this question answered?
first check brake light fuse second check light bulbs,they should be double element third check the brake light switch located on the brake pedal
Yes. One switch is for the left and right brake light assemblies; and, the other is for the 'third' brake light.
That would be the relay for the "Center High Mount Stop Light", AKA the third brake light.
Your hazard/turn/cruise module in the steering column has failed. The third light still works because the third brake light switch is mechanical tied to the pedal.
a blown bulb or loose wire.
I would guess that both of your brake light bulbs are burned out, and only the high mount bulbs are still working.
I have an 87 Aero Coupe and my 3rd brake light bulb is in my truck. I think yours would be the same too.
this tells you is a simple wiring problem.most likely a loose wire from the third light to the other lights.(third lights provides the power to the other lights)
it would be the brake light switch about 20 dollars at autozone
There are a couple of reasons a 1999 Chevy Silverado third brake light will not work. The first may be that the light bulb is burnt out. If replacing the bulb does not work, there may be loose wires to the connection causing it to not work.
you have to pull the feed wire off the brake switch to supply power to the new third brake light. get a test light and test the wires on the brake switch....one is hot all the time the other one gets hot when you depress the pedal....that is the one you need. do not take it pull your power from the rear light it might have an intergrated turn signal wire. which would make your 3rd brake light blink.. ok.have fun! you have to pull the feed wire off the brake switch to supply power to the new third brake light. get a test light and test the wires on the brake switch....one is hot all the time the other one gets hot when you depress the pedal....that is the one you need. do not take it pull your power from the rear light it might have an intergrated turn signal wire. which would make your 3rd brake light blink.. ok.have fun!
I would check switches for faulty sensor on emergency brake...GOOD LUCK
