Most early cars run the brake light switch current through the turn signal switch, check it out before you start running wires around.

I've replaced the switch from a known switch that works, checked all the wiring and everything seems fine. When I do however connect a test light from one terminal of the switch to the negative post of the battery the test light comes on when I apply the brakes and goes off when I release the brake. This tells me that the switch is fine and the problem obviously lies somewhere else. My question is this: Could I just bypass all the wiring and connect a long jumper wire like this from the switch all the way to the taillights? thanks, Nick Nichols ************************************************************* To unsubscribe or set your subscription options, please go to http://lists.psu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=l-forwardlook&A=1
