Here's the story:
When I got the car one side worked and the other didn't, so I cleaned the metal where the bulbs go in the pods and then both sides worked. Great.
A couple of months later someone told me the brake lights were not working, so I turned the engine off and started the car again and they were working.
Again, a couple months after that someone told me the lights weren't working but when I got home they were bright as can be without even turning the engine off like before.
The next week (3 weeks ago) I was heading to a car show and the brake lights were not working and the outside driver bulb (blinker) was burnt out. So I replaced that and it is working, but still no brake lights.
I have read about 10 threads on here but I can't figure it out because I know nothing about electrical. Two things I know, when I use a test light on ANY of the connections in the engine or under the dash nothing lights up except positive on the battery and positive on the voltage regulator and the "mystery" fuse was blown when I took it out and it was a size 14, so I replaced it and it blew and then put a 9 amp in and it blew.
Remember, I suck at electrical so be kind! Oh yea, the headlights and taillights and blinkers work but not the dash lights or dome light.
