Default RE INTRO

Well it's been a while since I posted - things get busy and time just cruises along. I still get on the forum every once and a while to see if any thing is new.

Since we got the car we’ve had a blast with it. Last summer I raced it in a SCCA sponsored event and did fairly well. I was running in the top third of the class and was only 1.5 seconds or so behind a really nice 944 turbo – couldn’t keep with the WRX’s though.

The weather was nice last week and I got the car out for a few days but its back in the garage again. We are expecting another 2-3 feet of snow this week so it’s time get back in the truck. Actually it may stay there for a while – spring.

I do have a weird problem with the brake lights though. The third (upper light) works fine but the lower two are out. All of the other rear lights are working. I checked the bulbs and they are fine. I checked the brake pedal switch and it is fine (should be if the third brake light is working). I checked the fuse and it is fine as well. If any one has an idea about the lights let me know. I’ve searched the forum and haven’t found anyone that has the same symptoms. Thanks

I take it your rear lights and reverse lights work?

Yes- all of the other lights work (turn signals, reverse, hazard, running, etc.).

Have you checked the individual wiring? I remember reading about some sort of switch malfunctioning with BMW lights. I will try to find the article but no guarantee....
