No brake lights
This Bronco is a BEATER with emphasis on bEATer.
I will only spend a little effort on this b4 just running trailer lights to the back & wiring it all new.
I have tail lights & occasionally turn signals.
I have no blown fuses.
The bulbs are good.
Just replaced the brake light switch.
Cruise control will not cancel when I hit the brakes but will if I use the turn signal.
Lastly.....someone spliced into the wire @ the switch & ran the wire to come component on the firewall behind the pedals. It has some sort of button on it.
Because the wires are potentially hacked I will toss on a set of trailer lights to get brake lights if I can't find it quick.

I'm going to post this in rednekkedness thread.
I had a set of trailer lights - I bolted them to the sides of the bronco & wired in a thumb switch.
so now when I hit the brakes I can also hit the thumb switch & I have brake lights.
I found a pressure switch that you plumb into the brake line. $20 plus the fittings.
I will do that as soon as the weather is nice enough for me to want to crawl under the truck. Its all sloppy & icy now. maybe next month.
