i have been a member of jbi for a while, but i havent written anything. but, i have a question for whoever can help me out. i have searched but, i cant find anything on toyota cavalier taillight wiring. i have been to the toyota cavalier website, and followed those instructions and it works to an extent. the blinkers work and brakes work, however when i hit the brakes both the blinker and brakes light up.

i have checked the wiring and instructions and everything and i cannot get the thing to work. i have checked the directional switch wiring and checked all of them, and i cannot get them to work.

sorry, if this has already been posted, but i need some help asap!

thanks

it sounds like you didn't cut the wire in the steering column

did you follow these directions toyota tails wiring

its the white wire on top of the steering column right be hind the hazard light switch it the only white wire that comes out of that harness plugging in right behind the hazards. hope that helps



simple minds talk about other people.
average minds talk about events.
great minds discuss ideas

yep, those are the instructions i followed.

in the steering column, i went through and cut and re-connected all of the 4 wires that run from the directional lever. i tried 1 at a time, and nothing changed. it did the same thing. but, i could have screwed up. ill check it out...

there is ONLY 1 brake wire that runs up to the column into the turn siginal switch


IT IS WHITE , AND IN THE END OF THE TOP PLUG


there is 2 plugs that go into the turn siginal switch , 1 goes up and down the other is FLAT , it is at 1 end of the flat connector

probem is solved! thank you 97caviels!

no problem

sorry to yell the key words , lol
