Re: [DML] Brake Lights

You need to check both sides of the terminals in the fuse box for fuse four 
to be certain you have voltage. If you didn't check the supply side of the 
fuse, you'll always show no volts. You should have 2 male spade connectors on 
the brake switch. Green and green/purple. Since you've got 12 v on the green 
wire at the brake switch you probably have no problem with the fuse box. On 
the brake switch connect the hot green wire to the green/purple wire with a 
jumper, and you should have brake lights, and either a bad or misadjusted 
brake switch. The brass fitting on the switch you mention is just the 
mounting threads for the switch. The pastic plunger on the end of the switch 
is responsible for making the connection in side the switch. There should be 
no metal contact to the brass switch threads from the brake pedal lever. From 
what you've described so far, I think you have a bad switch.
