Brakes problem
1994 Chevy Silverado V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

The brake lights have stoped working. I have changed the brake light switch, but they still don't work. All of the other lights work...blinkers, tail lights. I read on one of the other questions about adjusting the switch...how do you do that? Can that be the problem? The brake light fuse looks fine.

The brake pedal arm should be depressing the brake switch plunger, when pedal is depressed the plunger should extent. If the pedal is not fully extended the light will not come on.

It turns out it was a fuse, but not the brake light fuse. This fuse also operated the door "dinger" and some of the cab lights.
