[Healeys] Brake lights kinda not working

[Kees Oudesluijs]

This kind of fault is very often caused by a defective ground/earth 
connection, possibly in the light units themselves. A proper clean of 
the contact area light unit/body, connectors, bulb holders and bulbs may 
sort this.

>> A guy stopped me and said my brake lights weren't working. He was only half right. When the lights are on the brake lights work fine. When the lights are off, the brake lights don't work. The wiring diagram for my BJ8 did not help.  Hopefully somebody can help, other than drive around with my lights always on. Thanks in advance.
