Turn signal tail lights and BRAKE LIGHTS NOT WORKING

It can be faulty brake light switch causing the problem or its blown brake light bulb. First check and confirm brake light lamp is working and that's not the case.

For turn signal not working it can be faulty turn signal switch or its issue with wiring:----

These will help.

Thanks.

This is a tough one with out being able to see the wiring. i will enclose a wiring diagram for the complete lighting system.
You will need to locate the correct wirng and make sure its going to the correct light. Most times a bad ground wire will make the light do funny things like your car is doing. With the diagram i enclose locate the ground wire to the rear lights and make sure ground is good, even if you must cut old ground out and run a new ground to a good metal ground.

brake lights won't work, but the center does ??? u need to change your turn signal switch which is in the steering wheel. i changed mine and it worked great .....


hope that helps

R/S IP panel if not it I would be happy to help.

If the third brake light works and the regular ones don't, it is most likely a bad turn signal (multifunction) switch. The switch is able to kill the brakes lights to run the turn signals, and in rare circumstances does this. I've seen it several times. It could also be wiring, especially near the turn signal switch, but it is usually the switch.

If you turn ON your hazard (emergency) blinkers, does the left light blink like the right one?

I had the same problem about a month ago myself. I had to replace a fuse which was under the driver side under the dash it cost me $6 to replace. I cant remember the name of the part but call a auto store and explain to them the problem. I think it was called a relay fuse or something! Good luck with that!

do your turn signals work? I believe the brake lights go through the same wiring harness as the turn signals,you could have a bad turn signal switch.also did you check for power at the brake light switch?you may also want to take a look at the wiring in the trunk

Electrical issues because that yr of buick well all yrs are **** cars and require more main than a girlfriend....Dont worry about it...But if u want to fix change the turn signal switch....:)
