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

[RandalPark@xxxxxxx]

Sometimes the switch needs to be adjusted. By '67 the switch is mechanical rather than hydraulic. These are usually adjustable. To make sure that it is functioning correctly, watch with a flashlight it while pushing on the pedal.

Over the years I have found that brake light switches are very often the cause of light problems, and also Auto Pilot problems.
