Default Please help...Brake lights out on 93 Accord...tried everything

Hey guys, im a newbie...I have a 93 Accord LX that has 192,000 miles on it. My rear brake light is out even though I have replaced all the lights and control box in the rear. I mean what else could it be? Anyone have this problem? The dumb red light in my dash is making me mad.....

Is it one light or all of them? Did you check your fuses? Does your horn work?

hey, i got an idea! if the light is annoying you and all your lights are working, pull your dash cluster (30min job) and pull that bulb out. i recently bout a new cluster for my 94 accord and it came as a 4 door and i pulled 2 of the door light indicators out with needlenose pliers!!

Definately check the fuses, I had the same problem, and it fixed it. No more red lights for me!
