I've had the same problem with my series IV. When the lights fail I replace
the switch. They work for a while, and then out they go again. It's
happened twice coming down Lookout Mountain with traffic behind me. Now I
don't go anywhere without a spare switch. I'd rather switch than fight. Ah
ya.

Subject: Brake Lights
Hi All: I've been having brake trouble on my series IV. It's not really the
brakes, they work fine. It's the brake lights. They don't work unless I have
alot of pressure on the pedal. I've removed the booster from the car so more
pedal pressure is expected, and I've replaced the brake light switch, twice.
I've spoken to Curt at Sunbeam Specialties and I've tried his remedies
(Thanks Curt) but still have the same problem. I'm worried that I'll get
rear ended because someone didn't see my brake lights! Has anyone else ever
had this problem?
Thanks,
Steve Shuttleton
