brake light problem- AE86 Sat, 15 March 2003 07:38 Go to next message
my break light in my AE86 is getting moody lately......

The other day a mate driving behind me said my brake lights were not working. I narrowed it down to the fuse compartment in the footwell so i changed the fuse and it worked!! but only for like 2 drives, so i changed it again and again and again because i can't find the problem. Can someone tell me how to remedy this problem and where do i check the possiblities?

check that there is no shorts in the light unit itself and check that it has a good earth.

Yeah, well i take the fuse out and then try to plug it in another space but it doesn't work therefore it should be blown. Would it be a good idea to plug a higher amped fuse in?

NO that's like saying i cant seem to turn the Tv on ... perhaps if i shoot bullets at it , it should come on.

if the fuse is blowing its blowing for a reason, check all the ciruit and the ground like juzzo84 said , check everything to power to the brake light switch to the fuse to the wiring harness then work through to the lights themselfs
