Third Brake Light

Well I cant get my third barke light to light up. I tried it with bulbs that were not blown and it worked for a few minutes, then stopped. I even tried using a different brake light assembly with no luck. What else can I do, is there a fuse for it or something? Thanks for any help guys.

Are the replacement bulbs still good? After all, it DID work briefly...

THREE BRAKE LIGHTS, NO WAITING


You have a separate switch at the brake pedal
for that nerd light. It uses the same fuse as the
normal brake lights so if the normal ones light
the fuse is good. Go to your friendly local electronics
store and get a volt / ohm meter. Now you will be
able to test the switch and trace the wires coming
off it and going to the nerd light socket.

Happy Racing!
