Can anyone come up with a good reason why when I depress the brake pedal, my rear right brake light and my front left blinker light come on? I know the PO screwed around with the wiring when he replaced the signal arm on the column. All of the other lights work perfectly. I believe when he plugged in the wires from the new signal arm switch, he did it incorrectly. Is the brake pedal switch tied into the signal switch somewhere?
