Can you change your own brake light bulb on a SAAB 97x?

Check the owners manual. I have provided a link to one here:



http://www.extendedgmwarranty.com/



If you go to page 5-50 (pg 302 of the scan), it will tell you step by step with picture on how to do exactly as you ask. You need a phillips screw driver and it should take you less than 15 minutes to complete. On page 5-51 it will tell you what bulbs you need to replace the lamp.



Good luck - this is exactly how you do it if you don't want to go to this instruction page:

1) Open the liftgate

2) Remove the screws from the tailamp assembly

3) Pull the tailamp assembly away from the vehicle

4) Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise to remove it from the assembly.

5) Pull the old bulb straight out of the bulb socket.

6) Press a new bulb into the bulb socket.

7) Insert the bulb socket into the tailamp assembly and turn it clockwise to secure.

8) Reinstall (push) the tailamp assembly into the vehicle and tighten the two screws.

yes it's easy even if you have the LED rear lights it's still not that hard

Daihatsu YRV 2001 how do I get to the brake light bulb to change it.?

I cannot find how to remove the light cluster... Thanks

There should be some sort of crazy twist clamp. then it will pull right out.

Remove wire lock, then its a depress and twist kinda deal..



If its like my ol rice burner its an insane pain, but look at it real hard, it will eventually pop out at ya..(how to get it off i mean.)

I have a 2008 toyota corolla, my brake light is on, what could be the reason?

It seems as though brake fluid is leaking from the left rear wheel. My from brake shoes were changed a few days ago, but my pedal still must be pushed all the way down to stop. Do you have any ideas? I bought my car in july of 2007.

well to start of you said that you own a 2008 corolla if this is correct pretty clever of you because you then go on to say that you purchased the corolla in july 2007 12 months before toyota sold the car ? next you say that you had rear shoes replaced all 2008 corolla have 4 wheel disc 's also if you had the shoes replaced did they then adjust the brakes up and bleed the system of air they should have also check if the rear cyc's had a leak or are you just guessing that there is a leak or did they just replace rear disc pads CHECK THIS OUT FIRST
I have a 2008 toyota corolla, my brake light is on, what could be the reason?
The left rear wheel cylinder could be bad. There could be air in the brake lines. Fluid level could be a concern. ABS, if you have ABS could be acting up.
There is a stupid little rubber gasket under the break pedal, that, if it wears out or falls off, will prevent the break pedal from coming all the way back out (and thus keeps the break lights on). I had that happen on a Galant once .. might not be at all what you're experiencing, but pull on the break pedal an inch or two and see if the light doesn't go out. It's like a $1 part but cost me a battery until I figured it out. Cheap for a shop to fix if that's what it is .. they'll charge you a buck for the part and maybe $30 to fix it.
fuse is out...
Leaking brake fluid could be a bad hydraulic hose or bad wheel cylinder. If you get the car up in the air and have a closer look at the back of the drum you will be able to see which it is. Wouldn't recommend that you drive the car in the meantime.
If by %26quot;brake light%26quot; you mean the warning light on the instrument panel - and you have fluid leaking from the left rear wheel - the light is trying to tell you that - duh - the fluid is LOW. the pedal being low also is an indicator. probably the fluid is so low that you have air in at least half the brake system. the system is split into to halves as a %26quot;fail safe%26quot; so - you havent lost all your brakes. you need to get some brake fluid and fill the master cylinder. that is the plastic reservoir - usually sort of white in color that is in the engine compartment right in front of the driver. in fact it connects to the brake pedal. you should see fluid in it probably only on one side because it has 2 compartments. snap off the lid and add some fluid up to the max %26quot;line%26quot;. Brake systems must NOT leak. get it to a good repair shop and get the leak fixed - and the system filled and air bled ouit.
Toyota's quality has become deplorable. Everyone chants about the Corolla's reliability. Junk. And America will soon learn this as the new models come out and fail.

HELP! Where is the brake light switch located in 1996 Chevy Suburban 350?

The brake lights on my Chevy Suburban do not work. Someone told me to change the brake light switch but I can't locate it. Does anyone know where it is? Does anyone know where I can find a diagram? I looked in the Chevy book and it doesn't explain where to find it.



I checked the fuses, they are ok. I changed the fuses, still ok. Both the left and right turn signals work just fine.



The hazard light do not work either!!



Can anyone help, please? Urgent!

Can I replace the brake light bulb on my audi a3 or do I need to take it to audi to do?

A brake light has gone on my audi a3 and I thought yep I'll just replace it but it's all panneled in. I have changed bulbs on Vw's with not hassle, just unclip the small panel and replace it but on the audi a3 it's all boxed in. How do I replace them?
Can I replace the brake light bulb on my audi a3 or do I need to take it to audi to do?
To change the bulb you will need to remove the rear light cluster. Inside the boot you will see a round coloured (same as interior trim) Remove this and you will see a bolt that needs to be removed and the whole light fitting will be free to remove and then you can access the rear of the light like you could on the other cars. Be careful not to let the light drop when you undo the bolt and also not to Over tighten it when re fitting.
Can I replace the brake light bulb on my audi a3 or do I need to take it to audi to do?
Its not to hard to do! Inside the boot behind the light cluster there is a blank plug that you need to pop out about the size of a 50p. In there you'll see a long plastic hex nut with a slot in it. It easier to use the screw driver in your spare wheel kit (probably designed for the job!). Unscrew this nut BE CAREFUL not to drop it in inside! You then need to hold the rear cluster by the inside edge (boot open) and pull it out a bit to clear the thread you have just removed the plastic nut from. Move the cluster outwards and sidewards which will pop the side of the light out of the side part of the bodywork. Its only held in by 2 plug style things in rubber gromets. The rest is simple, the bulbs are held on a circuit board like any other car in the back of the cluster. I would use phillips bulbs though, I put some cheap petrol station ones in and it kept blowing them! Hope this helps!

    How do I reset the ABS light for brakes after changing the pads? Land Rover?

    This is a 2006 Land Rover LR3
    How do I reset the ABS light for brakes after changing the pads? Land Rover?
    That ABS light has nothing to do with those pads. You have something else going on. the sensor to sense the wheel speed is close to the ring on the end of the axle. Wire might have come loose or the notches in the ring can be messed up. The abs sensor reads the notches by electro magnetic pulses. So something is telling the abs that its not reading or the abs module itself sensed a problem. It would be wise to find out what the ABS code is. run to aurtozone and see if they can read that code and then post it here so we can tell you where the real problem is.

    the wheel speed sensors job is to sense when the wheel locks up (brakes lock the wheel) then it pulsates the brake fluid to the wheel to release the wheel so it doesnt skid. (lock up like older cars)
    How do I reset the ABS light for brakes after changing the pads? Land Rover?
    Changing the pads doesnt have anything to do with the ABS system. The ABS is an electronic system that senses when the wheel is in full lock, and then %26quot;pulses%26quot; the brakes. Pulling the battery will erase the code, but not fix the cause. Most likely you have a bad sensor or other problem in the ABS system

    Why does my "brake" light and my "rear abs" light come on after a hard brake on my 1992 Ford Explorer?

    Normal operation after start up; all warning lights operable, but off; and normal brake function. But when I press harder than normal on the brakes, the BRAKE light and the REAR ABS light come on, and they stay on until I turn off the car. This will happen even if I'm not traveling. With the car just sitting idling, if I press the brakes too far, the lights come on. Whenever these lights are on the pedal feels a little spongy towards the bottom of travel (but that could be my paranoia) and takes longer to stop. There is NO fluid leakage anywhere, and the MC is full to the perfect level. All brake parts (pads, rotors, drums, shoes, spring kits) are around 1,000 to 1,500 miles old, and I have always changed them myself (for 10 years on this vehicle) and new front hoses were installed 4 years ago. There are no other issues with the brakes other than this. 222,000 miles and counting. Help? Please?

    Why does my %26quot;brake%26quot; light and my %26quot;rear abs%26quot; light come on after a hard brake on my 1992 Ford Explorer?
    You have a problem somewhere in the rear circuit of your antilock braking system, if that is the error message you are getting. Have it repaired. When you step hard that activates the ABS which is not working correctly, so you get the light.
    OK, after crawling through your brake lines...



    How about that good old JSOP valve? If there is air in a line the piston inside the JSOP valve will move and make the brake light come on.



    Otherwise, the ABS system is probably bad and you get both warning lights.



    You can get a fluid leak inside one of the wheel cylinders and the fluid is still trapped behind the rubber boot and not leaking out just yet.



    If you have a front brake hose that is swelling shut you'll notice a pull to one side when braking. There is a rubber hose that connects the rear end steel lines to the steel line that runs from the JSOP rearward.



    My money is on the leak that hasn't shown itself in a rear wheel cylinder.



    Good Luck!

  • 1971 Mustang Brake light switch problem, won't come on till I'm stopped.?

    I recently change my 71 Mustang from manual brakes to power disc brakes. It was a kit, changed everything brake pedal assebly bracket etc, I even changed the brake light switch which attaches to the pedal assembly that triggers the lights to come on when the pedal is pressed. My problem is when I step on the brakes the switch doesn't get actuated until the pedal is all the way down. This only seems to happen while driving. If I'm parked very little pressure will turn on the switch and the brake lights come on. Why would the switch not work when driving and coming to a stop?

    1971 Mustang Brake light switch problem, won't come on till I'm stopped.?
    That's a weird problem to have...and it baffles me. I have a 73 Mustang. You might want to check your switch and make sure its not loose and maybe moving when your driving (just a wild guess). Id say it has something to do with the electical part of it, so check that too. You might be able to adjust the brake switch itself for a higher sensitivity, but Im not really for sure since its been a couple years since Ive really messed with mine. Only other thing to do is go back through the directions and MAKE SURE you missed nothing...there could have been something you overlooked.
    try a different brand switch, they aren't all created equal...

    There should be a removable panel inside the car where you can access the bulbs. Remove that and you will see the sockets and wires. Grasp the socket of the bulb in question and turn 1/2 turn. That should allow you to pull the socket free to change the bulb which is part number 1157.

    How do i change my brake lights on my 2001 Chrysler Voyager?
    There should be a screw someplace on the tail-light housing - usually in a 'hidden' typle place. open the rear tail gate and look for screw heads on the side or bottom of the tail-light housing...



    remove those screws and the housing should just slide free.



    The bulbs and sockets are held in place by the twist-lock structure of the socket. twist it one way to loosen and pull free. Then the bulp just pulls out.



    Install the parts back in opposite order or removal.

    Just a guess, but if it's like any car I've ever owned you get to it through the trunk.....
    Leatherman is correct. You need to find some hidden screws or bolts, and maybe a grommet to push in. They might be hidden behind a panel. You have to check from inside. Then you should be able to take off the assembly and access the bulbs.

    How to contest a brake light ticket?

    How to contest a brake light ticket?
    Not sure about the other contributor's jurisdiction but in NV, this is a %26quot;fix-it ticket%26quot;. Once your equipment violation is corrected, stop by the local PD office and have an officer sign stating the violation is fixed. Next go to the courthouse and have them record the new status........problem fixed! If you don't fix it then you risk the chance of another citation and if the officer sees you have been cited for the same thing, off to jail you go.
    How to contest a brake light ticket?
    Your ticket should tell you the date and time of your court appearance. If not, contact your local traffic court. There will be a reference number on the ticke that they can look up for you. And yes, you will have to go to court if you want to contest the ticket.



    Since you were guilty, I would advise that you humbly tell the judge that you are sorry, that you promptly had the brake light fixed, and you would appreciate his understanding. Unless there is more to the story than you've presented here, you won't win on any legal grounds.



    Good luck.
    Why would you like to contest the ticket. You seem to be admitting your light was broken. On the other hand, yes there are techniques for your court appearance that will help you get out of the ticket. Admitting that you replaced the brake light might not help in that regard!

    you don`t remove the lens, open trunk and move carpet or liner there maybe an access hole where you will see bulb socket turn and remove, if not, there will be a series of 10mm nuts or plastic wing nuts remove them and remove whole tail light as complete assembly, turn socket and pull it out change bulb then reinstall in reverse order

    Does anyone know what would cause the abs light to come on a 2000 chevy astro after changing the front rotors?

    I changed the front rotors, bearings, and brakes on my 2000 Chevy Astro, and now my abs light AND brake warning light stays on. The vehicle stops fine without pulling, the brakes feel good, the pedal is strong, and the abs brakes are obviously working because you can't %26quot;lock them up.%26quot; The only thing I did to the sensors was wipe the old bearing grease off of them... I'm puzzled.
    Does anyone know what would cause the abs light to come on a 2000 chevy astro after changing the front rotors?
    is your van two wheel or four wheel drive because you either didnt get rotors with the abs tone rings on them if its two wheel drive or you didnt get the correct bearings if its four wheel drive the rotors on the two wheel drive van has a toothed ring on the area where the grease seal is on the inside of the rotor the four wheel drive bearing has the sensor attached to it usually on aftermarket bearings so you would have had to string the wiring and connect it so i am guessing that you have a two wheel drive van and probably got the wrong rotors from the part store compare them to your old rotors if you still have them could possibly have the tone rings on there but with the wrong number of teeth
    Does anyone know what would cause the abs light to come on a 2000 chevy astro after changing the front rotors?
    Maybe it's not ABS but really abs, and your vehicle is just appreciating you and the recent stomach crunches you've been doing. Take it as a compliment.
    was the light on before you changed them? if so it has to be cleared off of the computer in your car. if its not cleared then they will stay on because something is different. if it wasn't on before i would recommend having someone look at to see if there is a new problem.
    If you used the correct replacement rotors, most likely you moved the sensor slightly out of position when you cleaned it off!



    A computer scan will tell you what sensor is causing the problem!
    You may have damaged one of the ABS sensors inside the wheel well.
    you have to clear the codes when you do any kind of work like that.

    Changing Car light bulb?

    Recently replaced left rear bulb for brake light in Mondeo and it worked. However, just noticed that both dipped lights not working and front right head light.



    Is it likely that I have caused the problem when changing other bulbs or is it likely to be a simple case of a lot of bulbs going at the same time.

    It's coincidence.
    Changing Car light bulb?
    its just all ur light goin bad just replace them all..
    Please check fuses first, and make sure you put the right bulb in the light you replaced.is it a single pole or double, you can see by looking in the socket, if there are one or two contacts inside the socket, make sure your bulb has the same amount of contacts.
    Its possible that you have put a single element bulb in as the brake bulb instead of a double element type. Check the bulb, it should have 2 solder type points at the base and you should be able to see 2 thin element wires inside the glass. Also sometimes fuses can be blown when you change bulbs on the Mondeo. Check the fuses, if you have never changed them before there should be spare fuses clipped to the side of the fuse board.

    I just had my brake pads changed and now my car is pulling hard to one side and my brake light is on. Why?

    The light wasn't on before, and the care wasn't pulling. The break fluid was out, as well, and it was NOT out when I went to get the pads changed. What happened?
    I just had my brake pads changed and now my car is pulling hard to one side and my brake light is on. Why?
    Your car developed a brake fluid leak, since the mechanic touched it last they get to explain why it suddenly started leaking. I imagine you can see the brake fluid on the backside of one of your tires.



    A couple scenarios come to mind, not an exaustive list:

    1. the old caliper developed a leak when they compressed it for the new pads.

    2. Perhaps they let the caliper hang from the hose when changing the pads and the old hose developed a leak.

    3. They opened the hydraulic system (i.e. to change the fluid) and it did not seal back up perfectly.



    Obviously if this is a friend doing the work, you should try and be understanding (you are saving money and they are learning), but if it is a bonefied mechanic then give 'em both barrels.
    I just had my brake pads changed and now my car is pulling hard to one side and my brake light is on. Why?
    Because your mechanic sucks.
    Someone didnt know what they were doing
    Take it back and ask the mechanics who did your brakes what happened. Obviously, they did not do the job right, and they should fix it without charge.
    you could have a seized caliper

    it sounds like whoever changes your breaks is a retard
    mechanics did a bad job. you can sue their *** for endangering your life and the pedestrians
    you need to have the brake lines cleaned and new fluid put in
    Go back to where you got it done. They screwed up something that could be a hazard. Be safe.
    The caliper was damaged when they were installing the new pads. Whomever did the work did not properly re-install the caliper.
    Shoddy work. Bring it back to the place it was %26quot;repaired%26quot; and let them know what the new problems are. Speak with the manager about this, not some customer service guy. They should be happy to fix the problems that have arisen without you having to pay more.



    If you are given the run around and you went to a national chain for repairs, then be prepared to contact the higher-ups. If it is an independent company, speak with the owner. They want to know if their mechanics aren't doing proper work. If you're still given the run around, contact the Better Business Bureau. They can sometimes negotiate a reasonable solution.



    Good luck!
    The car is pulling due to only 1 side (brake) working. If car is pulling to RIGHT; the LEFT side is not working. The brake light is ON due to no fluid in half the system.



    You obviously have a leak in the front system and it has drained the Master Cylinder causing the light to come on in the instrument panel.



    Go back to the garage with your receipt in hand and have them recheck what they did. Stand your ground, but DON'T go in to see the Service Manager with a chip on your shoulder.



    Good luck.
    The brake lines most likely need to be bled. Take it back to the mechanic that put the brakes in.

    If you can't figure it out, then you can't operate a screwdriver. There are 2 screws that hold the tail lamp in place. Once you remove those the tail lamp will %26quot;pop%26quot; out and then you can swap out the bulb. Any shop can do it in about 5 minutes.

    How to change a rear stop/brake light on a 2002 bonneville?

    Logic says that if there's no access hole under it in the trunk then you'll have to crawl in the backseat and figure out the trick to taking the top lens assembly off. Start prying around with a small screwdriver and see what might pop off.



    %26quot;One place where you will run into the most problems is the Center Mount Stop Light (CMSL). Most are mounted inside the car on the rear deck lid. Removing these can be a problem. Some have mounting screws hidden by small plastic covers. Some have studs extending down into the trunk and are held in with small nuts. This requires you go into the trunk, remove the nuts and lift the whole assembly out. Some simply snap into place and can be difficult to remove if you don't know where the lock tabs are.%26quot;

    Why does my brake light come on and the steering wheel gets real hard to turn and the car turns off?

    I have a 2004 Nissan Altima and at times it turns off. The brake light comes on, on the dashboard and the steering wheel gets real hard usually only allowing me to pull over the left hand side and the whole car shuts down. I taught it was because i needed and oil change but it kept doing it even after.
    Why does my brake light come on and the steering wheel gets real hard to turn and the car turns off?
    there is a recall on that problem they need to change the crank sensor check with your local dealer they might fix it for free
    Why does my brake light come on and the steering wheel gets real hard to turn and the car turns off?
    The dash lights coming on and the loss of steering is because the car is cutting off. That is normal you don't have power steering when there is no power. Needing an oil change will not make the car die, you have a bigger problem. You need to get it to a shop.

    How to change a brake light switch in a honda accord? the lights dont turn off?
    The switch should be fairly simple to replace... You would need to remove the panel on the underside of the dash that is above your feet when you are sitting in the driver's seat... The switch will be attached to a bracket with either screws or more than likely some plastic holders, remove the switch from the bracket and unplug the wiring from it. Installation is the reverse. P.S. if you are unsure of which switch it is: the switch you are looking for under there will come in contact with the brake pedal...
    How to change a brake light switch in a honda accord? the lights dont turn off?
    there is other one or two fuse box under the hood
    get in your car slowly pull your break pedal back to you if they turn off reach under your dash and tighten the screw on the break light switch and if not replace it
    It can be a pain because they are usually way up in the dash as they contact with the brake lever. Unlees the contact got stuck I dont see how it can do that because they are only activated when the brake lever contacts it and that rarely happens that they get stuck but it can happen. It would be worthwhile for a mechanic to do it because it shouldn't be over 100 bucks.

    How do you install a brake light switchon a 94 astro van?

    I have a 94 astro van that the brake lights all of a sudden stop working one night. I replaced the bulbs thinking one burned out. It still did not work so now we are replacing the brake light switch to see if that helps. Any other ideas and how do we change this switch out?
    How do you install a brake light switchon a 94 astro van?
    uncomfortably, i'm afraid...



    The switch is mounted high %26amp; deep, under the dash, behind the brake-pedal arm...so you'll remove %26amp; replace by lying on your back, and scooted up til your face is up under the dash to reach...it's rather uncomfortable, to put it kindly.



    The switch is fairly easy to see once you're in there; it's a plunger-type about 2%26quot; square just after the bend in the arm.
    How do you install a brake light switchon a 94 astro van?
    there is two outher things it could be a blowen fuse or a bad relay the switch is more likey monted near the brake peddle and screwed in to a breaket
    before you do any of those things, my question to you is, do you have tilt steering in your van? if yes, then look along the steering column under the dash from top to bottom, at one point you will see an electrical harness plugged into a connector attached to the column, its more towards the bottom of the column. check that connector. the 94 vans were known for pulling the connectors just ever so slightly when the tilt was used, gm screwed up and didn't keep enough length on the wires. when the wires were pulled they would just disconnect just enough not to make contact, boom, no brake lights. what i do is i just plug them back into place making sure they snap in, and then zip tie them. problem solved. good luck.

  • '93 toyota pickup battery light and brake light on changed battery and alternator checks out fine what now?

    Make sure there is enough brake fluid in the fluid reservoir. If you needed brake fluid the light would come on. I hope the battery and alternator really were bad and you didn't waste money changing things that didn't need to be changed. They are very expensive, but brake fluid is only about $5.00. Have a look at the brake shoes and pads, and replace them if they're worn too thin. When they wear down, the brake fluid fills in the brake line to take up the slack. That would be why the brake fluid gets low.

    A light tap on the side of the reservoir can make it free up and float back up to the top.

    I assume you have the fluid at the proper level.

    Sorry I don't know these cars, but you might check the pressure sensor on the master cylinder. Also, if the switch for the parking brake is stuck closed, or if the ABS Speed Sensor or module have failed, it could have caused these symptoms.
    try the brake pedal, when you push the brake pedal in, it releases a %26quot;button%26quot; which activates the lights, this button

    might be stuck in the out position. Or it might be broken,defective.

    How do you change a brake light in an audi a4 2003?

    Ronnies right, its the screw on the side of the inside of the boot, under a small flap, its a phillips screw. Undo that, your lights will then just pull off, the whole cluster that is. Sometimes it sticks if it hasnt been off for a while. Then the back connector circuit unclips and pulls off to get to the bulbs.

    The only thing left is the relay. Replace the relay. You will have to consult with a service manual to tell you which one it is in the fuse and relay housing.

    2001 Honda Civic EX



    I have checked the fuse. I have changed the light bulbs. I have changed the brake light switch. ALL the other lights work (tail light, turn signals, back-up light).



    I also recently had my muffler fixed. The bolts near the connection of my muffler with the catalytic convertor was loose. Could the mechanic have punctured some of the wiring here? Is that even possible?
    My brake lights do not turn on when the brakes are applied.?
    Do the turn signals work? If they do, I would suspect the brake light switch or the turn signal switch. If the cyclops light works and the brake lights don't, the turn signal switch is where I would start. The reason is the brake light signal from the switch goes to the turn signal switch before it goes to the lights



    Without seeing the vehicle I could not say, but I doubt the mechanic could have hurt the wiring tightening the cat bolts, the wiring is inside the car.

    have you checked the fuses try all you relays as well i bet you will solve the problem
    I have an Intrepid that had the same problem. It turned out to be the wiring in the trunk.It was torn inside its insulation from the trunk lid from opening and closing . Hope this helps.
    after the fuse check the wiring to the brake switch, if the switch is working then check that you have power to the brake light bulb in the rear cluster, if not you have a break in the wire or a bad rear light cluster, also check the plugs to the cluster and any earths you can see to the body by the rear lights.

    you may have to look up under the dash and check the actual brake light switch itself, see if you can remove it and take it up to your parts store and see if they'll test it for you. should be a cheap fix if it's bad

    which brake light do you need to change? the ones on the side of the van or the ones on the trunk door?



    if its the side of the van, then beside the brake light assembly, there will be screws to take the whole thing out. take off the screws and slide the assembly out. figure out which wires go to the brake light. twist the plastic bracket that holds the bulb and pull it out. then just switch bulbs. make sure its the right bulb and make sure you changed the right bulb.



    if its the bulb on the trunk, just remove the plastic panel and change the bulb.



    the owners manual has details on how to change the bulb and which bulb to buy.

    My back brake light will not come back on after being changed.?
    Check your the fuse that controls the brake light. It might be the same bulb but have two different fuses assigned.
    Recheck your installation of that bulb, you may have put it in backwards. This can cause the power for the marker lights to light up the brake element and when you press the brake pedal the dimmer marker element will look invisible. Also, check for a broken ground wire from the taillight assy. This can cause similar problems.
    take a test light and see if you have power to the socket. if you don,t then it,s got to have a break in the hot wire or the ground.i use to take a piece of covered wire and slid 1 end down beside the bulb and grounded the other end someplace when the ground was bad.

    How do I make the emergency brake light on the dashboard of my 2002 VW GOLF won't stop blinking?

    I recently changed the front headlight bulb, and soon after my emergency brake light on the dash won't stop blinking. I tried resetting the computer by unplugging the battery for a while and that didn't work. I am convinced I may have blown a fuse. What fuse controls the brake light on the dashboard? I can't find the answer in my owner manual anywhere.
    How do I make the emergency brake light on the dashboard of my 2002 VW GOLF won't stop blinking?
    did you check your brake fluid? usually the light will come on or blink if the fluid is low.
    How do I make the emergency brake light on the dashboard of my 2002 VW GOLF won't stop blinking?
    Take off the emergency brake! Sumthing is stuck!
    fix the anti-lock brakes. You may be low on brake fluid because the pads wore down. If you just had brake service done, the repair guy didnt put the sensor back on right. they have nothing to do with each other, it is just a coincidence that the light blinks after the headlight stuff.
    try pulling the release back as far as you can you might have hit it when you got in one time
    Take your car to your friendly local volkswagen dealer
    Hi, by emergency brake light on the dash i take it you're erferring to the light that glows when you've engaged the parking brake? If its so, then pull up the parking brake lever and when its locked in position slip your index finger underneath, close to where it meets the floor of the car, there should be a little switch there. This gets dirty sometimes and gets stuck in position so the dash blinks as if you're driving around with the brake yanked up... Hope this helps...
    Fuse ain't blown otherwise the light would not come on. Did you check the brake fluid level in the container? could be you are low. Just coincidence that it would show now, but that would be a reason.....so that means you have a leak in your braking system somewhere. A wheel brake slave cylinder would be suspect.

    most likely to be the wrong bulb, one of my friends had his rear brake light changed, and every time he pressed on the brakes his headlight flashed!



    took the mechanis a while to figure out the problem, in the end it was just down to the wrong bulb!



    to make sure you have the correct bulb, either take your old bulb down to the store to buy a new one, or refer to the maufactures booklet for bulb information (may not state the bulb needed), take it down to a FORD garage and ask for the bulb you need :)

    The Audi just uses the normal single filament bulb you can buy from any accessory shop.if you open the tailgate there is a small cap in the plastic trim in the tailgate aperture,behind which is a single screw.Remove the screw,it is about 2 inches long,then hold the lamp cluster and pull it outwards towards the side of the car.It may take a little 'working' %26amp; be careful not to chip the edge of the lens against the panelwork.Should take no more than 5mins.Cheers
    How do you change the rear light brake bulb on an Audi A4 Avant (03)..where do I get the bulb from?
    Most brakes, have similair bulbs and can be picked up at a local auto parts store (Auto Zone, Checker ect..) As for changing the bulb....there should be five or six screws around the cover, just unscrew them, pull the cover off, push in and turn the old bulb at it should pop right out. Do the same in reverse to replace it.

    It's a crappy car! Sorry, don't take that personally, it's just that those %26quot;cloud cars%26quot; from the Chrysler Corp. were notoriously poorly made, and have had many problems. It's most likely the wiring somewhere in the tail end of your car... and the dealer (they love this) will have to do a diagnostic check with their electronic equipment to find the source of the problem. I wish you the best! Oh, one more thing, Are you saving up for your next car? I would be....
    I changed the rear brake light on 2003 dodge stratus still doesn't work what could it be?
    Did you change both brake lights or just one side? Or was it the third brake light? If you only changed one side it shouldn't be the wiring. Make sure you have the correct bulb. On combination lamps there are two filaments. The last two digits in the number on the base of the bulb will be 57. If it is a single filament bulb they will be 56. They both will plug into the socket but only one will work correctly.

    If you replaced both, Make sure the third brake light works. Then your turn signals. While your foot is on the brake wiggle the turn signal switch to see if the brakes come on. If not, it's your brake light switch on the top of the pedal arm.

    Sorry I don't know these cars, but you might check the pressure sensor on the master cylinder. Also, if the switch for the parking brake is stuck closed, or if the ABS Speed Sensor or module have failed, it could have caused these symptoms.
    try the brake pedal, when you push the brake pedal in, it releases a %26quot;button%26quot; which activates the lights, this button

    might be stuck in the out position. Or it might be broken,defective.
    check your brake fluid....they have a censor in there and when the fluid is low it will stay on

  • How do you change a brake light in an audi a4 2003?

    Ronnies right, its the screw on the side of the inside of the boot, under a small flap, its a phillips screw. Undo that, your lights will then just pull off, the whole cluster that is. Sometimes it sticks if it hasnt been off for a while. Then the back connector circuit unclips and pulls off to get to the bulbs.

    ummm take the light out and put in a new one?! No seriously... if you have to ask how to do it, it is probably better to just take it in to have it done. Autozone might actually do it.

    Brake lights won't turn off but it's not the light switch?

    My brake lights won't turn off. I've already change the light switch near the pedal but it didn't help. I'd change the back light bulbs but that didn't help either.

    What else could be the problem?

    Help please *_*

    The only thing left is the relay. Replace the relay. You will have to consult with a service manual to tell you which one it is in the fuse and relay housing.

    you might need to adjust the switch after you put it on.
    you may have a short to ground....keeping the lights on all the time....you need to look at the wiring diagram and find that short.....

    the air bag light is on because what is called a clock spring in the steering wheel went bad.and the break pad light most likely the Sense wire wasn't hooked back up or the wire was broken....

    My brake lights do not turn on when the brakes are applied.?

    2001 Honda Civic EX



    I have checked the fuse. I have changed the light bulbs. I have changed the brake light switch. ALL the other lights work (tail light, turn signals, back-up light).



    I also recently had my muffler fixed. The bolts near the connection of my muffler with the catalytic convertor was loose. Could the mechanic have punctured some of the wiring here? Is that even possible?
    My brake lights do not turn on when the brakes are applied.?
    Do the turn signals work? If they do, I would suspect the brake light switch or the turn signal switch. If the cyclops light works and the brake lights don't, the turn signal switch is where I would start. The reason is the brake light signal from the switch goes to the turn signal switch before it goes to the lights



    Without seeing the vehicle I could not say, but I doubt the mechanic could have hurt the wiring tightening the cat bolts, the wiring is inside the car.

    If it's the same shape as mine which I think came in 02? It's a case of two bolts inside the car, then some really strange catches that will have you puzzled for a few minutes! There are two, one at the top and one at the bottom. Once you have removed the two bolts the light cluster will wobble about but still be attached.



    OK to remove it completely you wil have to pull and twist REALLY hard - trust me, it will feel like you are gonna break the thing but don't worry!! The catches are really odd, extremely strong pressure catches, and the only way of doing it is pulling really hard (if you can get your fingers between the cluster and the car!

    The hand brake light comes on every time I change gear?

    I have a R reg escort 55 diesel van, It seems when I go from 1st to 2nd this hand brake light comes on and goes out?



    what could be causing this?
    The hand brake light comes on every time I change gear?
    The e-brake cables could be sticking slightly or the handbrake limit switch is set too close to the release threshold. I had the same problem with a '97 Tacoma with a manual transmission. The actuator levers were sticking and the brake light would come on when I hit bumps. Every year when I would get an inspection they would work on this. It never did go away completely.
    The hand brake light comes on every time I change gear?
    Faulty switch under the handbrake cowl - common prob on these old buckets
    not enough tension on the cable to keep the handle away from the switch, real common, especially if the brake is not used.





    good luck

    Hi there

    If you lift the rubber cover on your handbrake you will see a switch there it has more than likely just worked a bit lose.

    Adjust it back in towards the handbrake and tighten the locknut and your done.

Visit workshop?%26quot; If the only thing the car needs is a change of the brake fluid, will this display disappear by itself when the brake fluid is changed?

    Does a mechanic need a special advice/tool to turn off the 2003MercedesE320 brake warning light?Details below?
    Depends on what is wrong. In the case of the early W211 chassis, it could very well be the SBC pump which has reached its threshold limit and the only fix is to replace it. Contact your Benz dealer. This pump is problematic and Mercedes did extend the warranty for these units because of this. This may be covered under warranty for you.



    BTW, a brake fluid warning will only come on if the fluid is low. There is no warning nor reminder light to tell you the fluid is old. It's part of the regular maintenance schedule to change the brake fluid every 3 years.

    There is a sensor on the front brake. When the pads wear down, the sensor trips. Do the front pads and replace the sensor and the warning light should go away.

    89 buick regal custom brake lights dont work?

    my turn signal works as well as my parking lights work. i checked fuses changed brake light switch and still got nothing. bulbs r good! wear would i start to find this problem and how can i do it. there is no power to the bulb when pressing on the brake!
    89 buick regal custom brake lights dont work?
    How did you check the fuse? You looked at it appeared good? Often times fuses will blow and still look good.



    Get out your 12 volt test light. Clip the alligator clip to a good ground. Probe one side of the fuse. Did it light? Now the other. Did it light? If both sides do not light, the fuse is bad, change it.



    Assuming the fuse is good, make sure voltage is getting to the brake light switch. then make sure it is getting through when the brake is depressed. Sometime the switch will stick and not come on.



    One of those two things should fix it.

    How do I change the left brake light on my 2004 VW Bug?

    Be warned, this is an annoying bulb to change (not as bad as the headlight though!!) inside the trunk, behind the head light, there is a small grilled cover, pop this off, and look inside, you will see a small black plastic knob threaded onto a bolt, remove it, the bolt will now feel like it is attached to a spring (it is) once you have the knob off, use a sturdy PLASTIC flat object to gently pry the tailight housing out of the fender, it will kinda pop out when you get it (be careful not to mess up the paint) once it is loose, undo the rear bulb connector by turning it to the left about 30 degrees, and pulling it out, replace the bulb, inspect the connectors(common corrosion area) if all is good, then line up the bolt on a spring to go back through its little hole, and re-install.

    How do you get the change brake pads light to go away on a 1999 Cadillac Seville STS?

    It's really annoying. I put in new brake pads, but I didn't change the sensors and I'm not going to because they are stupid expensive for a feature thats pretty unneeded. Is there any way to keep this light off for good? It comes on every time I turn on the car and I have to hit the arrow up to turn it to something else.



    Also, are those sensors the possible reason for the annoying chirp I hear while driving? It sounds like its coming from the wheel in the front but the rotors are new, brake pads are new and everything is in sound shape yet it makes the most annoying chirp ever. Could this be because the car thinks it needs new brake pads so its telling me to change by chirp and by stupid light on the dash?

    2000blazer brake lights stopped working changed bulbs but only 3rd brake light is working whats wrong?

    Something no one has bothered to mention yet is your actual brake light switch. The third brake light has it's own set of contacts with-in the switch - seperate from the main brake lights which also are used for turn signals. Obviously, you should first check ALL your fuses, not just the ones marked as brake lights. On some vehicles (Dodge Neon for example) the third brake light runs off of the A/C fuse. Weird, but true. However, it all the fuses check out ok, I'd try a new brake light switch,,,, they're inexpensive, easy to change, and prone to failure. (One of the most common causes of failure I've found). Hope this helps to get you on the right track.
    2000blazer brake lights stopped working changed bulbs but only 3rd brake light is working whats wrong?
    you need to check the ground wire on the back of the harness for this one,the middle one will still work because its on a separate ground wire,but when they loose the main ground in the rear they wont work at all,once you locate the harness follow the wires you,ll see the ground wire,its real thin on these,and breaks off real easy,good luck hope this helps.
    2000blazer brake lights stopped working changed bulbs but only 3rd brake light is working whats wrong?
    It could be a blown fuse or a wire short of some kind, to test this get a test light from a neighbor or auto zone (like 6 bucks), and take out the light bulb and in the socket put the test light and if it lights up your having problems with bulbs blowing out, but if it doesnt light up it could be a bad plug or wiring. Best thing if you dont want to mess with it take it O reilly's or Auto zone and i think they can check it for free. Good Luck
    Sounds like a fuse-

    the third brake light is on a different fuse line than the others.

    Check your fuse box and replace the dead one.

  • Why is the brake light and ABS light coming on? 2001 Chevy Malibu?

    I bled all the brakes, changed rotors, pads, shoes, no fix. When I first start the car it misses until these lights come and on then the car runs fine. Also, before the lights comeon and you hit the brakes you canhear a steady clicking through the brake pedal until the lights come on. The brakes work fine though.
    Why is the brake light and ABS light coming on? 2001 Chevy Malibu?
    Pull the code off your ECM with a scanner and then you will have the cause. Or, get yourself a Chilton's which will have the troubleshooting information. Sounds like it needs to be reset.
    Why is the brake light and ABS light coming on? 2001 Chevy Malibu?
    nothing youre going to fix randomly changing parts...take it to the pros.
    You seem to have a bad ABS sensor. To reset your brakes trun the key to the on possion but do not start it. Press your brakes 3 times and then start the car. By doing this will reset your computer of any faults. Now start the car if it still comes on then you have a bad sensor. Its no big deal but you can have it replaced for a few bucks, or do it yourself. ABS is just a safty percaution when braking. Its not a requirement to have.

    Does anyone know how to reset brake fluid light in1998 e39 bmw?

    Does anyone know how to reset brake fluid light in1998 e39 bmw?
    This is an interesting one. Normally the big question is how to reset the service indicator.



    Looks like you may need to get a reset from your dealer this time. Since you're going anyway...



    The steps listed below is strictly a %26quot;trial and error%26quot; method. No guarantees it will work.





    Option 1:



    Try this... with the key off, PRESS AND HOLD your trip/reset button on the dash. Turn the key ON, then release the button. Your dash will go into test mode. Press and hold again. You MAY or MAY NOT see other options in the display... if you do, there may be a reset option in there.



    Option 2:

    with the key in the %26quot;On%26quot; position, open your brake reservoir cap. This will trip the %26quot;low brake fluid%26quot; warning. Then close it back after a few seconds. Turn the key off for a few seconds and turn it back on.



    If this doesn't work, time to head to the dealer...
    Does anyone know how to reset brake fluid light in1998 e39 bmw?
    The brake fluid light that will come on will just say %26quot;ABS%26quot;. The clock symbol youre talking about, i believe is the brake lining light, which is your brake pads. Bring it somewhere, or if you are mechanically inclined, check the front left and right rear brake pads, as this is where the brake pad sensors are. Once they are changed the light will go out after leaving the key in the on position for about 30 seconds, sometimes more.



    I'd suggest doing this asap as the light goes on when there is about 3mm of pad left, and this will only last you about 1500-2000 miles(and will ruin your rotor and thats extra $ you gotta spend of they are still good!).
    This usually comes on because the brake pads have worn down, and the amount of pad that is worn off is made up by the brake pads moving in farther. This space is then made up by more brake fluid. Check the brake fluid level - I'll bet it is low. You can either add more brake fluid - or - put new brake pads on. If you just add brake fluid, becareful when you do replace the pads. You have to press the cylinder back into the caliper in order to get the new pads on. If you added fluid, this will cause the resevoir to be too full, or may even overflow and spill. If you put new pads on without adding fluid, the level should raise up to the MAX level indicator again.

    Remember to replace the brake fluid every 2 years -
    Try turning the ignition key to the %26quot;on%26quot; position and leave it there for about 2 minutes. Turn to %26quot;off%26quot; and then start the engine and see if the light is out.
    First, locate the brake fluid light. After finding the brake fluid light, reset, it. Your brake fluid light should then be reset. If not, repeat untill the brake fluid light is reset.

    it could be a turn signal switch in the column. check to see if your left turn signal works on the back end. Also make sure that the left tail light works- just to double check for your own info. post more info when you get it.
    There is no seperate fuse to driver or passenger side lights. Try the turn signal switch. Does that seem sloppy at all? Is there more play than normal in it? It could also be a short in the wire harness on the way back to the plug in. But, more than likely it could be it's something simple as usual. We always think and prepare for the worst, but never for the simple things. Good luck!!
    if only one is out it not fuse its in the wiring or the ground for them,for that side,or its got the wrong bulb in it,if it was a fuse or a switch none of the would work so that's not the problem look for bad spot in the wiring near where the wires go in to socket where the bulb goes,and double check the bulb again ,if it was a short it would blow a fuse,so thats not the problem either you have lost power just to that one side,good luck,

    Brake Light is on only in the mornings?

    After the car seems to warm up it goes off. I had my brakes changed about 2 years ago and haven't had any problems until the past few weeks. Any suggestions. 2002 Ford Escape.
    Brake Light is on only in the mornings?
    Of course my answer all depends on where you live, If it just started recently it could be a short in the wire to the light from the pedal or handle wether it be a emergency brake or pedal brakes, It could also be a short created by condensation in a circuit, since it has just started to turn cold with in the past few weeks this may be it. It would also explain why it stops after the car warms up.. the Condensation goes away. It could be that or a switch problem, ie the switch is sticking. But to be safe I would take it somewhere and tell them what is going on. Brakes are not a thing to put off. Then from there they can do some tests on it.

    How do you change a brake light bulb in a 2000 vw Lupo?

    On a VW you open the interior trunk panel and there will be the back of the light. There is a large plastic cover the size of the light. It should have a tab to remove. When you unsnap the cover all of the bulbs for the light will actually be in the cover. The blown one is the silver or dark grey one. Just pop it out and a new one in and snap everything back together.

Which means that you need new brakes. The brake senseor goes near the brake pads their is usally one in back and one in front and are usually $30. Dont buy parts from dealers I found them to be extremely expensive just go to local parts store. Good Luck!

    Perhaps the brake pad sensor was not replaced. If it was, assuming that the sensor is not defective,

    then all that is needed is to turn on the key but do not start the engine, then wait approximately

    30 seconds, the brake pad light will turn off by itself.
    I work as a mechanic, and we usually have to remove codes from the ABS computer to get that light to turn off. Either that, or your mechanic didn't replace the pad sensors.

    Cadillac Change Brake Pads light...?

    I might be purchasing a 1999 STS tomorrow and this light is on.



    He said he changed the brake pads (turned rotors also), you can clearly see they are new, from a local mechanic. He said the mechanic told him he has to go to the Cadillac dealership to get the light turned off.



    If I do decide to buy it, how do I solve this problem?

    possibly bleeding the brakes might help. Also, disconnect the battery for 5 or 10 minutes to reset the computer

    2001 nissan sentra: how to change third brake light?
    Have no idea about this particular car, but many of the these lights have a housing that either pops off, or has small covers that pop off the sides.



    Is it on the back shelf behind the seat, or at the top of the window?



    If it is in the spoiler, then those are usually LEDs. , and sometimes a ***** to change.

    I have a 2002 hyundai elantra and one of my brake lights is out. I already bought the bulb, but the guy at the store couldn't help me put it in. I just can't seem to figure out how to get to the light itself.

    You may have to pull some of the trunk liner back to get to the wing nuts that hold the assembly in. Then the assembly should slide outwards and then you can get to the bulb socket.

    take it to a mechanic they will change it for you quite cheaply, better than breaking something while you doing it yourself

    How do I change 3rd brake light for Toyota 4 runner SR5, 2000. Spoiler on the top of the light?

    take out 3 of the four screws and just loosen the fourth and let it pivot down away from the high mount lense, then take the two screws out of the lamp. Sometimes those bulbs will swell up just before they burn out and not come thru the small hole, so be careful the glass doesnt break and go into your thumbs--they just push straight in. Good Luck--T%26amp;T
