My daughter bought a 99 accord about 2 months ago. The previous owner said she had
brake light issues. It would blow the fuse about once a month. Since then she's now having
to replace the fuse everyday or more.
I have checked the Brake fault sensor pins, the wiring plug behind the seat and replaced
the pedal sensor. I am out of ideas. Is there something else I can check that doesn't require
disassembling the entire car?
Currently all the lights are working (brake and turn) but the brake fault idiot light is on and
the turn signal light flashes fast.
On the left side wiring harness, closely examine the wiring. There may be a short on the power wires for the brake lights and the turn signals. Although they are separate circuits, the wire may have gotten pinched and are touching. The Grn power wire is for the brake light. The Grn/Blu (green with blue stripe) wire is power for the left turn signal.
On the right side, the Grn/Yel wire is power for the turn signal. Brake light power wire is Grn like left side. Look at the wiring there too.
