Can I have flashing brake lights?
The good officer dug into the Vehicle Code and learned that, yes, in California the devices are legal – so long as the brake lights flash no more than four times within four seconds.
Why do my turn signals stop flashing when I apply the brake?
Make sure you have the right bulbs in and check the wiring harness on your lights and take a look inside the light assembly for any short circuit. Also any addition like the third brake light and, like mayer said, a trailer light plug that is shortened can do it too. Good Luck to you Was this answer helpful?
Why does my brake light keep coming on?
The brake pedal stopper can also contribute to a brake light staying on. There is a brake light stopper where the brake light switch comes in contact with when the pedal is not pressed. Over time, this stopper wears out, or it can also come out of place. When this happens, the brake light will stay illuminated at all times.
Where are the brake lights on my car?
You will get the fuse panel under the dashboard and the PDC under the hood. The brake light switch is also to be found under the dashboard and check if its plunger touches the brake pedal arm. Any problem with the fuse box and light switch will affect the brake lights.
Why do my blinkers stop blinking when I apply the brake?
All of these problems mentioned can be the result of a bad ground. When you operate both blinkers and brake lights and the blinkers stop blinking, it’s because the circuit is not good enough to operate both lights. Bad ground. Same with headlights and blinkers. Probably the same with fog lights.

Why are the brake lights not working on my car?
All of these failures will cause the tail lights to not work, but will still allow brake lights to turn on when the pedal is depressed as the brake lights run on a different line of circuitry. Once a driver realizes their tail lights are not working, they should immediately address the problem for their own safety and that of others.
