help, brake lights malfunctioning!!!
Well,
as i told you guys last week, i picked up my winter-mobile! (91 LX Sedan)
well i just realized today im having some wiring, harness issues. when i turn on my lights, my rear lights come on as they should. however when i step on my brake, only my third brake light comes on, my other two dont. both my turn signals work thought.
any help to troubleshooting this problem? is there a specific harness i should be looking for, can anyone help me please.....its not safe and ill get a ticket fast if i dont get it fixed

Re: help, brake lights malfunctioning!!! (88civic)
when i bought my sedan i had the same prob with my brake lights not working,,,and i also noticed my horn did nt work ,,,turned out if i remember correctly that they share the same fuse,,,the fuse is located under the hood the black fuse box by the passenger strut tower,,,when ever i put a new fuse it would blow,,,so i checked my wiring and it turned out that my horn positive wire was disconnected and touching the frame of the car and shortin out whenever i pressed on the brake,,so i connected it back and prob solved
