    brake lights dont work at all

    Brake lights dont work at all fuses pops but i cant find any wiring problems. Can a bad brake switch cause a fuse to pop and how do i know if its even bad.

    I don't see the brake light switch as causing the fuse to blow. That implies a short somewhere in the brake light circuits.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      If the switch is internally bad, it can happen.

        Its still a short.

        Im having trouble with my headlights and sidemarkers doing the same thing. Just track it down my friend. Lots of time involved in electrical gremlins.
