Re: [FWDLK] brake light problem



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

On my '57 Dodge Coronet the brake lights won't come on.   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
