64 T-Bird brake lights not working. I have replaced the brake light
switch on the master cylinder and traced wires to a relay on front
fender. I am able to actuate the brake lights with a jumper wire at
the replay connection. Replaced relay and still NO brake lights. Any
suggestions or ideas?
Thanks Dano in TN

I think Mike is right!!! If I remember correctly from my Ford days,
Ford did not use the brakelight switch to disengage the first
generation cruise control, they used a pressure switch off the
mastercylinder. Like Mike side the brakelight switch is above the pedal
and had threaded mount so you could adjust.

It's a crappy pic, b&w not color, and you probably already have a better
pic or maybe even an actual manual, but...
