No brake lights right, left or top..No hazards or turn signals..
I do have parking lights..

All the fuses are good..I checked every fuse I found!..Underhood, Dash end..etc.

All bulbs are good...

They worked fine one minute..then didn't...



Any help is appreciated..

If I was a betting man, I'd say you need a new switch (it's a single assembly containing: the cruise control, hazard, turn signal, and wiper controls).

I had something very similar happen to me... no hazards, no brake lights (top worked, but left/right brake lights didn't). After replacing the control assembly everything worked again.

The Brake Switch? On the actuator rod going to the booster? I've just crawled out of a psition that I didn't know any man could get into to look at that...I can't see it but I can feel it and there is no way to get anything in there to remove the "clip"..

Do you have to remove the steering column or what?

Wait...you're talking about the wand on the column aren't you?

I also just took my meter to check the fuse block for power on all systems..everything came up to 11.5 to 12 on the block..

I went through my fuse blocks..under hood and end of the dash.
All the circuits came back 11.5 to 12 volts..
I spoke to a Chevy Service writer and he says that I need to replace the Brake Switch and the Multi function Switch...

Does this sound right to you guys?
The MFS is pretty pricey..

unknown at this time.
if power supllies are good and the flasher unit is known to be working and not even the hazards come on the the MFs assembly is the issue. it does not go thru the stop switch to run hazards. it draws directly from the battery to the mfs then flasher and back into the mfs to the light bulbs.

Thanks Comet...

Both switches (brake and mf) were going out before this happened..
I was having to bypass the brake to get it out of park and the wipers were acting crazy as hell...I guess the use of the hazards while towing a tuner honda drove it all over the edge..
I ordered a mfs today and will be picking up a brake switch tomorrow..

Wiper control boards are easy and pretty cheap to replace as well. One screw to remove the cover, remove the old, install the new, replace the cover, voila!!! :D
