I turn the light on - (either driving lights or headlights), and the brake lights come on.. Any idea what can be the problem?

Also if the lights are off, and i hit the brake, the interior lights come on (cluster, climate control)

 

mis-matched wires? did you just purchase the car?

 

yeah, i got the car.. figured it would be something dumb. He said he replaced the brake switch (on the pedal)

still does it. dunno

 

LOL im sorry but that is funny.
its your wiring

 

awesome.

 

I have a alarm on this car also.. Would this cause it to do this?

How would I go about fixing it?

 

Also, when the lights are on, and you hit the brakes, it gets brighter a LITTLE bit... Like its noticeable, but all the lights are on like your hitting the brake.. Even the 3rd brake light

 

 

your gonna have to make your way to the wires. just check to see if there are wires going to the wrong lights. i can almost guarantee that some wire went astray.

 

dammm good luck tracing the wire..
if its somebody that did a choppy chopp job
best bet is to start tracing the wire from the brake pedal.
and check all your light sockets in the rear tail lights
it is most common to short and therefore have no night lights if the sockets are grounding somewhere.....
check all contacts inside the sockets make sure they are not touching each other.

 

is the deck/radio wirs clip if so thats the issuse.happen to me once

 

haha funny. not trying to dog but thats hella funny. you put the e brake on and then the interior lights turns on...

prob have to take to a electrically shop. heard it was costly too.

 

foot brake, not handbrake

 

its something they added to the electrical system relays can cause this too from alarms systems when they dont have diodes in them or added, I had the same problem when someone added a alarm and did it wrong by getting power from a wire that worked with the blinkers. And that would power up my stereo when the alarm would go off, weird I know but trust me its something they added onto it. Might not be the alarm but around there.

 

Its and electrical problem and most likely nothing major check the fuses make sure their correct....

 

thanks guys, i'll look

 

FIXED!

the idiot before me bought the wrong bulbs, which are for 6 volt cars - ( like 1950's and ****)


So i replaced em and everythings back to norM! thanks for all the help dudes.
