brake light problems

[CamoDup]

did you check the light fluid?

I should have mentioned they are leds... I checked both under the hood and under the dash fuses. I'm working all night tonight and ill try the contact cleaner tomorrow.

Does your brake light assembly have a circut board on it? I had an 03 silverado that had the same problem. It turned out to be the circut board (tail light) Assembly's. I think they were about 20 bucks apeice.

 quick question do the flashers work on the trailer? i doubt your LED's are bad, have you checked the fuses on the side of your dash i think that is where the brake light fuse is on mine, chevys are funny like that they have alot of multiple fuses. i would bet on it being a fuse!

Check the Flux Capasiter.

That flux capasiter has always had problems. Haha. Ill have to try on a different trailer.

Checked all the fuses again today and they were all fine. I discovered that when the truck is off and I press on the brake the lights come on but very dim.

Sounds like a bad ground or a weak short. Check you bulb socket for corrosion and burnt/corroded contacts. Do you have a multi meter?

[high country]

did you try what I suggested yet? I have seen the very problem caused by a bit of dust in the plugs.....I thought I was going to need a new ecm the way it was freaking out.

[Maverick]

i havnt been able to pick up any cleaner yet. but im down to it being that or a weak ground

[Maverick]

K where in tricities can I get it fixed for a decent price? Maybe someone on here I can make a deal with?
