Default Please help me with my civic!!!!

Some simple q's:

The rear brake lights are fugled. All the bulbs are fine, but the top one doesn't work, and if you turn the lights on, one of them stays on. They are so screwed and I am sick of hand signalling. How do I troubleshoot this?

Also, I put a CRX steering rack on, and CRX suspension, but when I turn the wheel left hard, it makes a lot of squeeking noises. What is the problem?

Thanks for the help!

i would first of all check that all the bulbs are good... then check that where the bulbs get conection to the harness , that the contacts are very cleaned.... i will also check if any cable pinouts came off on the plug that conect the tails to the car harness....
then check for any voltage on the cable terminals that go to the bulbs.... see if u get voltage,.. if u get voltage and bulb dont light up, the bulbs are not being housed good on that terminal..... bulbs are just lit up by currenyt... no compicated circuit. check also all the fuses, and maybe the relay of the hazards....

Ok, I'll do that. Fuses are all good. Could it maybe be the light switch in the steering column? The one that turns on the lights?
