Brake Actuation Lamp Issues
 
Mr. Bliss,


The facts you present could be related to many aspects of the car's
wiring. Given that the brakes are integral to the problem, you might
visually inspect the left and right brake lamp bulbs. I had a similar issue
with odd dash lights and brake lamps that lit when the park or headlamps
were turned on. When I applied the brakes, my dash lights lit up and
the side marker lamps lit. The problem was one of the filaments in a
dual filament bulb was "Laying" on the other filament. A new bulb fixed
everything. Another thing you need to do is visually inspect the "Clocking"
on your brake lamp bulbs, left and right. Sometimes improper clocking will
make weird things happen with lamps.

You might give a little background as to what you were doing just prior
to the lamps going "Rogue". Sometimes we do things unintentionally
when we think we are "Fixing" something. Just a thought.


Regards,
Paul
