    it is most likely the Multi-Function Switch in the Steerring column. This switch controls brakes and directionals and neutral safety. You will need to pull steering wheel to get to this.

I have a 1998 gmc sonoma my brake Lights dont work but everything else does except the right blinker changed bulbs didn't help

Check brake light fuse first. If ok, the brake light switch at the brake pedal may be defective. Try wiggling the switch to see if the brake lights work. If not, disconnect the wiring connecter and if it is just 2 wires cross them over and see if the brake lights come on. If they do, the brake light switch is bad. If wiggling the switch makes the brake lights work, I would suggest a brake light switch as well

95 gmc c1500 third brake lite works but cargo won't

The cargo light will only work if the lights in the cab are on. Turn them on then flip the switch for the cargo light and it should come on, if not then it is probably an electrical problem.

Why don't my blinkers or brake lights work when i changed the bulbs?

sounds like it could be a blown fuse or possibly a loose wiring harness plug . or could be you didn't get the bulbs reinstalled properly I've seen it all so don't be offended . good luck

My brake lights arent working but my emergency flashers are. would that be a fuse or a wiring problem?

if the third brake light is working and the left and right brake lights are not than the most likely problem is the turn signal multifunction switch.

If the third brake light is also not working and the bulb is good than check the brake light switch located above the brake pedal under the dash. There should be power on one wire all the time. There should be another wire that powers up with the brake pedal depressed. If no wires power up with the pedal depressed than the switch is bad.

I can get you specific wire information if you need it. Just let me know.

Brake lights won't come on after changing brake booster on 97 gmc 1500. Also won't shift into gear.

check for a bad brake light fuse! if not the fuse, the brake light switch operates brake lights and if bad you will not be able to shift it out of park, as well as the brake lights not coming on.! because you have to put foot on brake to do so. if bad switch, it wont let it out of park. it could be just out of adjustment also!! good-day !

My brake lights and hazards stopped working. All other lights work. The bulbs and fuses are good.

IT SOUNDS LIKE YOUR FLASHER FUSE IS DEFECTIVE. IT WORKS BOTH HAZARDS AND TURN SIGNALS. YOUR LOCAL PARTS STORE SHOULD HAVE IT VERY CHEAP

Brake lights wont turn on.1994 gmc sierra.

This may sound too simple, but first verify that you are getting voltage to the light socket. Use meter on d.c. If you are getting voltage, and your bulb is good, it could be a bad ground. Don't overlook the brake light system goes through the directional signal in the steering column.
