I am having an issue with my brake light.It will not work unless the tail light is on.I am sure it is something simple.I have installed a new wiring harness and have a good ground to my tailight.Also by the way my park lights no longetr work.I am wondering if I have something wrong on my switch?Thanks

What year truck?

Do you have turn signals?

Stop lights and tail lights are separate circuits.
Have you check the headlight switch to see if the stop lights are not on the terminal designated for the tail.

Hi,I found the problem!I had to do some rewiring on my headlight switch.Funny how a rear brakelight problem can be traced to the headlight switch.I have a 52 3600 and my Dad has a 51 car manual that we looked at.I had to move the main power going in the switch and the tail light wire to different circuits and it worked!
