so I was heading to the bus depo yesterday .. to pick up some pieces shipped in , and as I was turning in , with my signal ON , I was almost rear ended ....

guy pulls in behind me , and lets me know he almost hit me because I had no brake lights ... "damb" really? electrical repairs suck ...

so I do a quick check , sure enough NO brake lights . Crap , I am not fond of wiring ... I got back to the shop , and first I thought it was the bulbs so I pilled out the lamps , and changed the bulbs ..same thing .

I decided to pull out the manual and check out the wiring diagram ... I thought there was a fuse , and maybe a switch ... figured that may be the problem .

There is a fuse , and sure enough it was blown ... I did a quick search to see why the fuse was blown ... had a look under the dash at the relay shown in the manual ... seems the pedal had been rubbing against the plastic relay for a while , and had worn threw the cover enough to make contact , and ground out the relay ... POP the fuse .

I think I got lucky
