RE: IML: 67' No Brake Light Issue...



Cliff

I looked in the FSM and tried to back trace from the rear turn lights. It looks like the brake and directional filament go back thru the body harness to the directional switch. I wonder if the problem could be in the switch. I don"t know for sure but a think the brake switch and directional switch work together to determine which light flashes and which stays on steady when turning with your foot on the brake. The hazzard flasher is also part of this circuit If I had to work on mine I would start at the directional switch.
This is just a educated guess and hope it helps you with this problem.

Hey peoples...

So tonight I discovered my brake lights are not functioning, and I am at a total loss as to why.

Problem: I press the brake, and I have no brake-lights.

1. I replaced the stop-light switch a few hours ago.
2. I replaced the fuse and checked all others.
3. I checked the wiring and cleaned terminals.
4. I checked/replaced all brake light bulbs.

Result: Still no brake-lights.

Notes:
1. All regular rear lights work when the headlights or parking lights are on.
2. Left and Right turn signals function correctly on both front and rear.
3. Hazard signals ONLY function in the front! The rear ones do not flash.


Request:

Please provide me with some insight as to what I am missing here. I have checked everything I can think of. The only thing I am not sure about is if the "Sentinel" system could have something to do with it, somehow...

Thanks,
Cliff
