Re: brake lights not working
I too have replaced the brake light switch but still can't get the brake lights to work. Hazards do not work eigther. Also the park brake when engaged doesnt make the lights come on dash or tail lights. (in fact it doesnt seem the park brake works mechaincally) YES we checked the fuse and have power at the fuse block. We are new 87 Firebird owners and really anxious to get our project tagged and rolling.
What should we try next? Is the park brake switch in the loop with the brake lights??

Re: brake lights not working
I have found that if fuse taps are used they can spread out the contacts in the fuse panel causing things to not work. Just another thought.
