86 IROC 3rd Brake Light
Hey guys-
My third brake light stopped working awhile ago, what could be the problem...??? Is there a fuse or something that is burnt out?
Thanks,
Ben

I've been havin problems with mine, and I determined that it is the connection between the hatch and the body. The little spring connections on the hatch side break the connection over time. Mine is somewhat intermitant. From what I figure, these connections should not wiggle around much. This should get you in the right area.

Thanks....I will try that tomorrow, it sounds like something that could be happening. My hatch contacts are not the best so I will try that-

All better
Fast Electrics-
I checked over everything and something was fishy. There were plugs on the sides of the back window that had no plugs going into either one of the two. I just made a wire with two connectors and WA-LA, athe third brake light that hasn't worked since I bought the car 3 years ago suddenly started working
Thanks for the input-
