Brake Lights/1960?

["Dave & Tracy" <dave-tracy.sherratt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The brakes were fully rebuilt just a year ago.This included a new Switch.
all the circuit from the wires at the switch to the bulbs are fine. the bulb
sockets are fine & no corrosion. Today I will pull the switch & check the
contacts inside. Then  go from there.
Regards
Dave.

> Is this on the '60? If the stop lights work great when you bypass the
switch, then there is something wrong with the switch. In the case of this
car, it could also be that there is something wrong with the hydraulics, or
the switch could be clogged. How is your brake fluid?
