Re: Brake lights dont work
This is what you never could find is a straight answer for this issue, but step one is too check the fuse under your hood, because that is where your brake lights and horn fuse are together as one for some odd reason, you could also do a horn test, press it and see if your fuse blows out, if that happens your brake lights go out also, I'm not to sure about the fuse number but its labeled under stop horn, just replace the fuse and your brakes will work, just don't press in your horn or it will blow your fuse again. And fix the short in your horn that's causing the fuse to blow if you still wanna use or have a horn.
Next if that's not an issue check your bulbs then your brake light switch, last but not least test your bulb sockets for power with a multimeter.
