I took my firebolt to get a state inspection (Hooray Virginia) this morning and it failed due to no brake light. The tail light is on, but when I try both the front and rear brakes, nothing. I tested all of the fuses, and pulled the tail light assemble to ensure nothing has worked it self loose. Any other thoughts? everything else works fine.

Help?

Pulled the front brake light switch, and it looked like it had crud in it. It still opened and closed so I Cleaned it re-goo'd it.

That fixed the front. Not sure what happened with the rear. But it started working as well.

I've had to do that too. That aerosol electrical contact cleaner stuff is wonderful.
