[Mgs] brake light switch / short question

[Paul Hunt]

Unfortunately that is very common these days, if you had said you had 
replaced the switch (not a criticism) I'm sure that is where everyone would 
have directed you first.  Don't expect any better out of the replacement, 
they all seem to be the same, I suspect they are made to the same specs as 
modern switches which only operate a relay and not the lights directly on 
modern cars.  To that end you will probably have to fit a relay yourself, 
you might like to have a look at 
http://www.mgb-stuff.org.uk/wn_electricsframe.htm and click on 'Lighting' 
and 'Brake Lights'.
