[6pack] Tail/Brake Light Problem

[William McIntire]

Sounds like you have a ground problem with the tail light assy. The
brake lights are using the tail light circuit as a ground. Pound a big
metal stake into the ground with a long wire attached to the car....no,
seriously , make sure the ground connection at the light assy is making
good connection.
