This is just a bad week! First my guage lights, 4 days later some sort of wiring issue. I start my car and head out, everything is fine, run a few errands around town come home shut my car off. Go back out to leave again and the battery is completly dead. Nothin, no dome lights or anything. So i jump start it, starts fine.... shut it off...starts right back up again...do my running no problems. just try to leave and once again its dead. I'm thinkin a positive wire grounding out somwhere. Anybody have any clue where to start?
Nevermind. I guess I'm just stupid enough for it having to be dark to find the problem. Brake light switch needs some adjustment. WOW
Had that problem :icon_lol:

Me too. It's very common on these cars for the switch to need adjusting at some point.
Hahah X3!!!!!!!! I had that problem just before I put the car away for the winter! I was like so confused, then I was driving around and the ABS started flashing I'm like on NOESSSS PMIII Fail!! too!?!? Then I realized the brake switch was fucked up and adjusted it. My recommendation is go to the parts man and get a new one, it will be an updated design and won't fuck up on you anymore.

x4.. lol. I just replaced mine with a new unit. It was under $20 iirc.
I pulled back on the brake pedal by accidnet one day and that happend took a while to figure out how to adjust it tho.
I didnt look at it too much today, but how do I go about adjusting that brake light switch. There appears to be little to no room to do anything in there. Detailed instructions or maybe a diagram would be awesome. It will be a couple days before I get time to get out to the garage to look at it.
Thanks

Has anybody ever swapped out that electric brake thing for an actual mastercylinder?
Sure have fun!
