[DML] Re: Brakes Lights don't work!

["bitsyncmater" <david.mckeen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Most likely your switch (at the pedal) has gone bad.  This is a common 
failure because our 4 brake lights draw about 7 amps.  Once the 
contacts start getting hot the plastic melts and the end falls off.

Get a new one from one of our vendors.  You won't find the proper one 
locally.
