Randy, thank you for your time and insight to my problem. I started at the fuses and fixed the non-brake light issue. The right side back lights have its own fuse.
Anyways, regarding the brake lights, all other fuses worked, then i checked the brake light switch and it tested good. When i press the brake all three wires have voltage. Then only one when i depress brake.
So the next place i checked was the exact wire on the harness that connects to the board for the rear lights. There seems to be three power lines. One that lights up without pressing the brake (back lights, i assume) and then two others, one that lights up when braking and the other that doesnt. For both sides, exact problem. The one that works is a light color and the one that doesnt work, one side is red and the other brown.
So, my question is, where does my problem lie? After the pedal sensor does it go straight to the wires out back or am i missing a step. For example, the dashboard light indicator, how does that play a part? And why both sides dont work but the extra middle brake light that is up top on the rear window work?
Please help me. thank you. Im so close, im exctied to fix this myself.
One last thing, Im confused about this. I dont know what you mean and where you are referring to.
Maybe this is where my problem exists:
4. If all the brake lights quit working all at once (which you would not know)the round red bulb out relay could be bad. They can usually be resoldered after removing the cover and examining the solder joints to find the bad one or simply resolder all of them. You can usually fine the bad joint in strong light with a magnifying glass.
