Subject:      brake light problem
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed

Hi,

last week some fellow told me that my brake lights were not working. I got home and checked to find one of the switches on the mc was not working (the other was ok). At the time I thought it strange that the lights would not work even with one working switch (check switch with ohm meter, continuity when pedal pressed).

So i swapped in new switch for bad one and guess what? Still no brake lights.

Bulbs ok, got 12 volts at switch but none at lamp.

All I can think now is that there is a break in the line somewhere, maybe a connector come adrift.

Any suggestions?

Alistair
