I searched my query, but I didn't find a straight and direct answer... maybe I'm an idiot and searched incorrectly.
Anyhoo, I just bought a 1996 Lumina for next to nothing. Everything works, and I'm going to put tires on it and charge the A/C and drive the car as my daily (I have four motorcycles and a 91 Honda Civic EX autocross car for fun).
My problem is the brakelights... the highmount works, but the two lower lights work intermittenly. Actually, they work rarely. I replaced the bulbs (they worked for ten minutes), checked the fuse (didn't do anything), and changed the fuse (same as changiong the bulbs).
Is there an easy fix for this? I believe I read something about the turn signal switch. Could that be my problem? Should I try and re-work the flippers (I know... weird term. I'm an old-school Corvette guy at heart) to get the brakelights to work?
Thanks in advance to all.
