Help, No brake lights

[ivan12]

I just got pulled over because I don't have Any brake lights. If I turn on my headlights the rears turn on as well but if i press the brake pedal I get nothing. I checked all my fuses and they're all good. What else should I check?

bulbs

Both bulbs at the same time? And I have rear parking lights?

i honestly have no idea. it was just a guess. sorry if i came off like a smartass

I'm GUESSING that there's a sensor on your brake pedal assembly somewhere.. but... i'm not sure. If there is, i'd check that. I know the clutch has a sensor on the back of it.

You didn't come out as a smart ass, I just thought it was weird that two bulbs could blow up at once. BTW I checked the switch on the brake pedal and one of the wires was disconnected, I'm thinking I must have hit it when I installed my clutch quadrant. Thanks for the input

If you have parking lights but no brake lights it is the brake light switch

It is attached right to the brake pedal, takes only a few minutes to change

it is a cheap little plastic piece that is easy to repair other then getting both hands up there and still be able to see.

did ya get a ticket?
