simple fix...dont slam the door, climb thru the windows and avoid speed bumps

there is a short somewhere so lets by-pass all that and run an independent wire. the brake light switch is located on the brake pedal assembly so it is a simple re-wire using a fog lights or any automotive relay. same thing with turn signal flasher. All you need to ID is to ID the turn signal and brake light wires.
