[QUOTE="Blown_By_You, post: 6758178, member: 35088"] The FIRST thing you should do whenever you have ANY electrical device on the car not working is go thru BOTH fuseboxes with a $2 test light from checker and check ALL circuits.. Brakelights would be hot all the time so the key doesn't have to be on, but I turn the key on anyway.. There are two metal spots on each fuse as you look at the top of them.. As long as both sides are the same (if the left and right light up, OR if neither light up) then the fuse is good.. If one side of the fuse tests different than the other, then the fuse is bad....Thats where I would start.. After that, you can go directly to the brakeswitch.. There are only two wires going to it.. One is green/red, the other is green/something.. The green/something will have constant power to it if the circuit is hot.. The green/red only gets power when the brake is depressed, so as long as green/something has power, you can test your switch for sure without going thru the hassle of replacing a perfectly good switch..
