Ok so as some of you may know i was having (as well as others) a dash light brake light issue....i was told to check my harness all the way to my fuses....both were fine of course as i had checked them before posting.....however with the recent posts of the same issue i decided to go back to basics and check the switch itself here is what i found:
here are the dash lights with switch turned to on position (parking/daytime) as you can see no life in the dash at all :anger
here is the little bastard light switch (comes with a white cover over it but i popped it off in order to get to it.....be careful dont just fist a screwdriver in there lol)
as you can switch the switch is good do to the headlights turning on as seen here:
however even though headlights are on and working nothing from the brake lights (note:they work when depressed/pedal is down)
dash still up to its old tricks and nothing has changed :badboy
here is the little guy that holds the key between you either a) being rear ended at night or b)being fined by the gustapo (both would suck)
lo an behold if you give em the business (press it down) it makes connection and on the 240th day you have light again :bowdown
hey look who decided to join the party
pointing with flathead at culprit of your lil gremlin
one more time for good measure
and there you have it folks this is what i found to be my solution hope it helps
o yea u might wanna know how to fix it too huh lol....well i used some needle noses and bent it SLIGHTLY (too much and you will either break it im sure or your lights will never turn off due to constant connection)
Sticky??????
also please post if this helped you thanks and GL
