Well, I wish it had been that simple. I was getting no voltage to
the switch wires, and no voltage at the fuse for flashers, though
flashers and turn signals work. I found a third wire dangling from
the dash harness, green with a yellow stripe, just like the two
running to the switch. by shorting this wire with one of the brake
sw wires I was able to get the brake lights to work. There also
seemed to be voltage when i put one test lead on this short third
wire and the flasher fuse (second fuse from bottom on left in fuse
block) Now I'm really confused!
