- In my 1985, Olds '98 the brake light does not work all the time. The
- major symptoms are as below:
-
- (1) Out of three (two on left and right tails and one in the centre on
- the back board) the center one is always working. Two on tails used to
- work sometimes, but these days they do not work). I have put all four
- new bulbs.
-
- (2) When I switch-on the headlight or park-light all four tail bulbs
- are working all right, however, with foot brake pedal depressed the
- second filament of the bulbs (responsible for brake light) does not
- light up.
-
- (3) The contacts checked indicate the current is flowing all-right.
-
-
- I need some help from some knowledgeables please.
-
- Thanks.
