Hello all you electrically mined people in fun land :thumb:
The brake lights on my Rv don't light. They used to, but now they don't.
There are two switches on my brake pedal, one has two wires and the other has three. I think the two wire switch is for the cruise control cancel operation but I may be wrong.
The three wire switch has one wire which I've been told is to do with the transmission (?) and a permanent live and when I depress the switch the 12v goes down the third wire. So I don't think it is the switch.
All fuses are fine and the bulbs are fine too.
I have a tow socket which I think is scotchlocked into the light clusters. A light board on this socket also fails to light it's brake lights.
If I connect my toad and apply it's brakes, the RV brake lights illuminate also - hence my knowledge that bulbs are okay.
I had hoped to trace the wire from the brake pedal to the light clusters and to this end I bought a tone generator and wire tracer. I have put the tone generator on the wire that get's 12v from the switch mentioned above (when switch activated) but I can't seem to trace it anywhere - even away from the switch.
I don't have a chassis manual unfortunately (workhorse 2001)
Can anyone offer any suggestion?
(Note: Possibly unrelated but my cruise control also stopped working at about the same time)
TIA
