    Default Strange Electrical Light/Brake Problem

    hey guys

    the other day i replaced my tailights and globes.

    and soon after that whenever i pressed down on the brake pedal my dash lights/illumination lights and parkers turn on, and then back off when I release the pedal...

    just wondering if anyone else has heard of this problem or would have any idea how to fix it?

    Have you used a single filament globe instead of a dual filament?


    This will cause current from the brake circuit to feed into the park circuit, turning on the dash lights and parkers.
    If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?
