I went to visit my brother recently who lives in Florida - as I was
driving behind him, I noticed that he had no brake lights! Once we
got back to his house I pulled his lenses out, had no bulb on one side
and a burned out bulb on the other. I bought him a couple of new bulbs
and replaced them, but unfortunately the lights still didn't work -
fuse was fine, looks like whatever energizes that circuit when the brake
pedal is pressed wasn't working. I didn't have time to get into it any
deeper than that, but he promised he'd have the techs at the auto
dealership where he works take a look at it!
I don't know if anyone else has ever driven in the Fort Lauderdale/
West Palm Beach area, lets just say I'm surprised he hasn't been rear
ended yet!!
Anyway, I guess that didn't have much to do with the topic - the
mention of Florida and no inspection triggered that little memory. :-)
