Brake electrical problem....
Alright we'll try to make this simplified. I have a 1988 C2500 5.7L 2x4 extended cab truck. First I noticed my brake lights would be on when I wasn't even in the truck, no keys in the ignition or anything. So I would move the slide on the trailer brake and the lights would go off. Then one day I went to start my truck and the battery was completely dead. I charged the battery back up and I thought maybe there was a short in the trailer brake so I disconnected it. Still no luck. Then I thought the stop switch on the brake pedal was bad so I changed that. Still no luck either the brake lights would be on all the time or off all the time when I tried to adjust it. So I just left them off all the time. About a week later I went to move my truck and the battery was dead again. I've heard it might have something to do with the multi-function switch ( my turn signals don't work either I have to keep flicking the switch for them to work) or a short in the electrical SOMEWHERE? Any help would be grateful. Thanks!

Without them you could get run over.:sarcasm1: Unplug the turn signal /switch and see if brake lights stay on. And watch and check the battery amp draw.

Re: Brake electrical problem....
Is the multi-function switch the same as the turn signal/ switch?
