One for center light. The other one runs through the turn signal switch. Odds are the turn sig switch is bad. checked light ok. turn light switch works both light oneach side come on then off. running light work its got to be that brake switch -- Message posted using http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/alt.autos.pontiac/ More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.html > checked light ok. > turn light switch works both light oneach side come on then off. > running light work > its got to be that brake switch Could be either. The brakes lights run through the turn sig switch. The turn sig portion may be good but at the non-turn position it is not making electrical contact and not allowing brake light power to feed through. Use a small 12v trouble light to make sure. Or jump the brake light switch. thank ill check that thomas -- Message posted using http://www.talkaboutautos.com/group/alt.autos.pontiac/ More information at http://www.talkaboutautos.com/faq.html I'm the guy with the 2002 Grand Prix with the same brake light problem Took it in to a shop and they said my problem was in the signal light switch. They wiggled the four way flasher around and the brake light is now working, at least on a temporary bases. They quoted me $700.00 to fix the problem by replacing the whole signal light switch! So far I haven't done anything. Doesn't $700.00 seem outrageous to replace a switch?
