Hello all.
Ok, so i am stumped with this one, and i definitely need some help before i drive into a canyon, or just get rear-ended . Just picked up a sweet 89 White LX for a sic deal. Brake lights no good though.... So I check the fuse box.. NO FUSE!! sweet, i throw one in... it pops immediately as i push the brake pedal. Hazards don't pop it, so it must be the brake light switch right? Throw in a new switch, still no brakes... bulbs are all good and tail lights light up fine. So now i am thinking its a short. problem is i searched the whole hatch area, and looked as much as possible up by the pedals, everything seems fine. The guy I bought it from said the brakes were always fine until he painted the car, and when he painted it he removed the spoiler. Could this be connected or just a coincidence? is it worth is to pull of the spoiler? basically i am stuck here. please gents, any help is really appreciated
