dont have brakelights on my 66 conv--looks  like new switch under dash and 
previous owner installed new wire  harness--switch sends voltage off output 
side when pedal moves--any  connections under car or in harness that may be  
problem?



I had the same problem on my '66. Turned out to be a ground  problem. First 
check and clean up the metal contacts on  outside of the bulb sockets . If 
still NG verify  that the taillight housings have good ground to the  body.
