    fuse F3 runs the brake sw, power and dash buzzer , be sure to cycle the emg. lighting switch , just in case its stuck half way, seen that many a time.

Tails lights are the GLOW when the headlights are pulled one cluck or 2, tails are also parking light (one click)
stop lamps HAVE nothing to do with that,
he never said but implies, the brake lamps are dead.
but OP, try posting what is dead, and not mix TL with BL.

my tails lamps are out , whith head lamps on.
or
when i brake , both stop lamps are out.
this will help.

    this circuit is simple

  • _-__-___-_
    _-__-___-_ Oct 08, 2013

    12v from fuse, to the brake switch, the switch close and 12v makes it to both stop lamps and both glow, it has only 4 parts, power:fuse:wires,switch and bubs

  • _-__-___-_
    _-__-___-_ Oct 08, 2013

    if power exits the switch that levels what, wires and bulbs

  • _-__-___-_
    _-__-___-_ Oct 08, 2013

    the wires (and conn) can be open or shorted, using dirt cheap voltmeter finds this failure reason in under 5min flat.

  • _-__-___-_
    _-__-___-_ Oct 08, 2013

    0v its open wires, or switch dead or fuse blown.

    6v on the wire (guess) is SHORT, (trailer wiring hack job or shorted lamp)

SOURCE: 2000 jeep wrangler brake lights don't work

hello sounds like a bad or loose wire on your brake switch up under your dash follow your brake pedal upward push down on your pedal now watch as you let it go slowley where it touches the skinny flat area of your petal touches a switch about 10 inches up from the bottom you should see a button sticking thru a bracket were your pedal touches check and jiggle wire if no lights change switch goodluck

SOURCE: the tail lights are out, so the brake lights-Jeep Grand Cherokee

i have a 2002 jeep grand cherokee i had the same problem when i would apply my brakes when the headlights were on my brake lights would go out, i found that my bulbsocket was not making good contact with the socket housing, if you notice when you take off a bulb, look at the light fixture where you unscrewed your breaklight bulb you will notice 3 medal contacts-they should be silver in the socket housing and like a copper on the socket bulb, in the socket housing their should be 2 silver contacts together and 1 by itself the one that looks by itself is making bad contact with the copper one thats by itself on the bulb, what you can do for a quick fix is; get a small piece of low cage wire or a thin piece of metal like copper stick that in to the bottom or top of that metal contact--i did it through the bottom leave the wire or piece of medal sticking out enough for where it can get contact with the bulb (just a little wire is enough to make contact, now screw the bulb on and test it---it will work----i did it to mine, if you need more assistance let me know [email protected]

If the break lights in my 1986 c corvette works but the tail lights do not, what could be the cause

Blown fuse ,bad headlight switch,or wiring issue.
the tail lights have there own fuse and are powered through headlight switch. Do the front running lights come on? If none of them work, switch could be bad if front work and rears dont, check bulbs and power to them when lights are on

Why don't i have any tail lights on my truck? no fuse in the fusebox for tail lights can anybody help me please?

Have you checked that your break light switch has not gone bad? It's located at the base the of steering column, just behind the brake pedal.

Also, check the brake light circuit. Start at the fuse box under the hood and make sure the brake lights fuse is not blown, the terminals are free of corrosion and that the connections are tight. Then check the brake light switch on the bake pedal arm.

I have no tail lights when i turn on my head lights

check your tail light fuse, or blown bulbs. Just do a small test before you strip. Put someone in car turn ignition on and just apply brakes, if the brake lights come on means you have tail lights bulbs blown . If you have no lights at all go again for bulbs or fuse.

Dashboard lights and rear exterior running lights not working. blinkers, flashers, and brake lights work. regular tail lights won't work. Not finding a blown fuse. not finding any fuse listed as "tail...

the fuse is labled 'brake'

I would replace the fuse... and then have someone stand to the rear of the vehicle and watch the lights come on as I applied the brake... if the fuse blows again... note which tail light did NOT come on durring this test and replace the bulb.. it is grounding to itself and causing the short.

No brake lights, fuses keep blowing and wont shift out of park

I would look for a wiring short in the trunk at the taillamp area, or, inspect the sockets for the taillamp bulbs for corrosion. In any case, you have a short circuit in the trunk area, also check the wire that comes from the body & goes up the trunk hinge on the driver side; that wire may be chafed, and it may be shorting out. Hope this helps; please get back to me if you need any further assistance.
