Re: [AMC-list] Javelin Brake Issue

[TWINRICH@xxxxxxx]

Just so you know the rear harness has a plug on the drivers side near the  
emerg brake pedal, this connects
to the main harness. Also the brake light wiring goes thru the blinker  
switch so check that also.

Joe,
I have had this issue before in my American. Once I  replaced the switch, 
another time the fuse was loose in the fuse panel. What  is interesting is 
that you say you ran a hot wire to the switch, and the had  continuity, but 
still no lights.  I don't remember if those lights are  one or two wires. If 
it is one wire, the bulb may be loose in the socket and  not getting a good 
ground. Of course you should check continuity to the  lights, and that will 
give you some good info.
Good  luck.

Ok. All the lights on my Javelin work  fine(except license lamp).....BUT 
the brake lights are dead! My 1970 Javelin  sporatically has brake lights. 
Most of the time...NOT? They didn't work when i  got it years back. Replaced 
the switch..they worked for awhile.....then..not.  Another switch.....same 
deal. Now......no brake lights. It has power TO the  switch and ACROSS the 
switch to the wiring harness  when you move the  plunger. I wiggled the wires on 
fuse panel one time...they worked for abit.  (LUCK i imagine). I've even 
ran a seperate hot lead to the switch ....nothing.  Is there a breaker/other 
circuit protection somewhere aft of the switch?????  Driving me nuts....and 
killing my arthritic neck being up under the dash.  THANKYOU in advance for 
any helpful info,  Joe
