took me a year and 3 months to finally finish this car from nothing but a shell to a running daily. my biggest issue the whole build was electrical.



so everything works fine. maybe TOO good because when i press my brake pedal, not only do my breake lights turn on, the front parking lights turn on like auxilery brake lights haha and my guage cluster lights up.



that's half the story. at night, when i have my lights on, parking or driving lights, my brake idiot light is on at all times. also, my third brake light stays on like a third tail light. from what i remember, that thing's only supposed to turn on when i brake. instead, it gets brighter as i brake like the other 2 cluster lights in the rear.



i figured it'd be the cpu, since the brake light warning relay's in there. that didnt solve a damned thing hahaha



any suggestions for an easy fix before i start goin wire by wire all over again?!

Lights stay on because of a short to ground. Possible a pinched wire or a bad relay. would start there
