Help needed ASAP.
Tuesday, February 20, 2007 10:01 PM
Alright everyone i am really hoping that you guys can help me figure this out because i really don't want to have to take my car to the dealership and be charged my first born for something i could of figured otu with the help of the org. Now the first problem is my Turn signals and brake lights. The turn signals light up on the dashboard but do not flash. The 3rd brakelight does come on but the two below it, in the middle do not. I have replaced the bulbs and they still do not light up. the only thing that i can think of is when i put my bodykit on i did'nt have a place for the corner bulbs so i just took them out. could that be causing me these problems???

Second problem is that when i am trying to slow down, there is no pressure in the line, and the brake light is lit up on the dashboard. at first i thought it needs fluid, so i put fluid in and close everything up. get into the car and start pressing on the brake pedal and the pressure builds up quickly( to where it is supposed to be) but as soon as i start driving after about 1-2 mins, all the "mush" comes back. any help at all would be appreciated guys. thanks.

Okay.......

Well, the lights problem...
-turn signals-
If your took the coner lights out, which are turn signals, then thats why your blinker stays lit up. Or just the flasher fried on your car.
-brake lights-
Now are you talking about the lights on your trunk with your reverse light? If so, there not supposed to light up. Its your reverse lights. If your talking about the outer lights (the brake light) then it could be a blown fuse, or grounded wire.

Now the brake problem...
Are you leaking any brake fluid whatsoever? If so, find out where and replace (as if I need to explain that). If no leaks, then you might have an air bubble in your brake system, hence bleeding them should helps. If problem still persist, then your looking at a master cylinder prolblem or worse... a brake booster (but doubt). I mean the problem could even stem to a small vacuum leak!

Hope it helps...
