3rd Brake Light
Hey, I'm new to the Forum. I couldn't find anything on the site already so I'm assuming its not that common of a problem. The problem lies in my 3rd brake light. It goes out periodically. I checked the wires and they all seem to have a good connection, and I'm pretty sure its not the bulb because it works sometimes. Also, the white reverse lights do the same thing, every once in a while they will work, and other times they won't. If anyone has any info I would greatly appreciate it.

I concur on the ground. That would be the black wire from those lights. It should be bonded somehow (riveted, screwed, whatever) to the roof not far from the brake light, I believe.
That reverse light turn signal mod has been done -- try using the search feature on the board.
Cute poem in your sig, but theologically incorrect. Scripture says that not one of us can commit no sins -- we go to heaven by grace and it can't be earned and we never deserve it.
Also if you drink like that, you're going to need all the grace you can get!

ps - I read in another thread about having turn signals in that brake light, but there was no info about it - so i thought this would be a good place. Does anyone know how to have the two reverse lights act as turn signals?

And welcome to the board.

I have one or two extra ones in the all red. I'll sell it for $10 including shipping if someone wants one. One of them is from my 2002, the other is from my daughters 1998. They do not have wiring harnesses or sockets, just the housings with the red lenses all around. I know I have ONE, I'll see if I have the other.
