What else can I help you with?
Why are the brake lights on a 96 ElDorado not working if the fuses and bulbs are good but the hazard lights are bad?
It needs checked out but both the hazard and brake lights go through the turn signal switch.
What do you need to do if both your brake lights are out in the rear of your 1998 Ford Coutour but your rear window light works the fuse and both lights are good and the signal and driving light work?
your brake light switch is probably out
How do you fix the brake lights on a 1996 Chevy Lumina?
It depends on the exact problem. If it's that both brake lights in the back do not work and the middle one works, it could be your turn signal switch.
Why do your blinkers work but not your brake lights?
Blinkers can work without brake lights. Brake lights are activated by a switch that is switched by the brake petal and the turn signals are acivated by your turn signal switch on your steering column. The two are two separate circuits. I suggest you check out the switch on your brake pedal to see if it is working properly. It must have 12 volts applied to one side when it is not acitvated and 12 volts should be on both sides when it is activated. When the 12 volts is on both sides of the brake switch, it should apply 12 volts to your brake lights and then they should come on.
What does the turn signal have to do with the brake lights on a Denali?
im not familair with that make of vehicle but. the brake lights anf the signals are supposed to be separte. they both plug into a harness near the back of the vehicle. if your brake lights are working with your signals, you might have something crossed. take it to an expert you trusst and let them check it out.
Why won't your bottom brake lights work on my 1996 Buick roadmaster?
It' likely, if bulbs are OK that the turn signal switch is burned out. If the switch fails, it won't allow the brake light signal through to the brake light wiring. Go to:http://www.2carpros.com/first_things/no_brake_lights.htm for the 4 page analysis. See: "(American Car) Both Lower Brake Lights Not Working" To determine if the switch is bad test the incoming and outgoing current. If brake light switch power is present at the turn signal switch but not at any outgoing brake light wires, the turn signal switch has probably failed. This is a Buick design issue because keeping your foot on the brake or if the brake switch sticks keeping the brake lights on, the circuit will fail due to amperage overload.
Both the brake as well as headlights turn on when you turn on the lights on your 1997 Jetta GLS Brake lights stay on while driving What should you be doing?
are you sure it is the brake lights and not the tail lights. if it is the brake lights you most likely have a short some where. go to a auto eletrican It is the brake lights which turn on. Short in the switch or the wiring?
Why do the turn signals work on a 1994 Jaguar XJ6 but not the brake lights when it's the same bulb?
There are two elements in some bulbs. One element is for the tun flash, the other is for the brake or taillight. I also failed to mention that they are single element bulbs. It's 1 bulb, single element. It controls both the brake light and the turn signal. The turn signals work fine on both sides but no brake lights when I apply the brake.
If the brake lights do not brighten when the brake is applied on a 2000 Dodge Stratus yet the bulbs are not burned out what do you need to check?
There are two filaments in the bulb that is used for taillights and brake lights. Make sure BOTH filaments are good before assuming that the bulb is not burned out. If, in fact, both filaments are good, next check the brake light switch. If it is good, check the turn signal switch that is in the steering column
On your 1996 GMC Sierra your brake lights don't work but your turn signals work why?
Although both signal lights and stop lights are within the same lens, they operate on different wiring. The bulb will usually have two filaments, one for stop and one for signal. If the brake lights are not working, the problem is probably a blown fuse or a faulty break light switch.
Why would the brake lights not work on an F-150?
Either a fuse is blown (which I doubt)both bulbs,blown(which I doubt)or the turn-signal harness that runs through the steeing column.OR the Brake Light Switch that the Brake pedal operates that is under the dash.
What is wrong when both my brake lights on my Mercedes slk 230 don't work?
Brake light switch near brake pedal
