Brake light fuse???

4638 Views 13 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  pir2
my brake lights and turn signals dont work, i replaced the bulbs and that didnt work. I looked for the fuse under the dash and I cant find where it say brake light/signal...is there a different spot where other fuses might be??? Or does anyone know what gauge/color the fuse might be? PLEASE Help!!!

also, could a wire be shorted and make all those lights not work???

Is it just the rear turn signals? Because the brakes and turn signals are 2 different fuses Brakes is #9, and t/s is #5... Both are yellow 20A. Do your hazards work?

Looking at the fuse box with the horn relay and hazard flasher in the lower right corner, the cavities are as follows...
Turn 14 15
Flasher 7
1 4 8 11
2 5 9 12
3 6 10 13
the turn signals front and rear dont work ...and the brakes lights, the hazards fuse is fine but they have not worked ever since I bought the RC, okay i'll check to see if those are good or bad.
I checked both of those fuses and they look fine...is there a possiblity they could be bad though? and what are the fuse in 14 and 15??? only one fuse is in there #14 not 15?
14 is all the dashboard lights (3A Purple), 15 is empty... Do all your parking lights work? If so, your turn signal switch might be bad... The signals, hazards, and brake lights all go thru that switch......... Let me dig out a diagram and I'll tell you how to test it. Do you have a continuity tester (not a test light) or a multimeter?

I dont have a continuity tester or multimeter, so what your saying is that the fuses might be good and the problem might be in my steering col. where the turn signal switch is??? I'm going to replace those fuses soon just to be sure...i'll let you know if it worked or not....
Do the hazard lights work when you push or pull the switch. Sometimes this switch gets stuck at the halfway point.
hazard just dont work, thats a different story, i fiddled with that thing and it just doesnt want to work
Okay, we replaced the fuses and nothing worked, so my friend is taking it in tomorrow morning to look at it at his shop..so i'll let you know if they find out anything tomorrow.....peace and thanks for the help guys!
okay things are back to normal, the flasher was replaced, not sure what they did to make the brakes work, I haven't talked to friend yet. I'll let you know what it was...
okay ya know how i said my Hazard lights dont work, well when my friend went to look to see what the problem was, he accidently hit the hazard lights to turn them off and then tried the turn signals and brakes, Well they worked! It was the hazard light keeping the turn signals/brakes lights from working.....who woulda thought, i know I didn't....

thanks for he help guys
