Electrical / Brake Lights turn off if I have my lights on
« Last post by juancano on January 08, 2026, 12:43:37 pm »
1986 C10 2WD

I've had a similar issue before but this is new.

Right side tail light: Brake light works when pedal is pressed; if I turn the lights on, the light on the tail light turns on (same bulb, 2 filaments). But, if the lights are on and I press on the brake, the bulb just turns off. So no light and no brake light.

- Replaced Bulb, tried 3 different bulbs
- Replaced socket (previous one was also a newish one)

What could it be? The brake pedal switch? Ideas?

Trying to get time devoted to the truck during the holidays has been tricky.  I've only been able to devote a total of a few hours over the past couple of weeks but every little bit helps.  I've got the next 3 days off so I will be focusing on block sanding and getting the 2nd round of primer sprayed.

Best looking Ford I've owned was the '78 F250 extra cab.

I bought my '78 K10 to 'flip' almost 10 years ago. Something happened... 8)

Ford trucks from 73-79 are great old trucks. They are simple to work on. Parts are easy to find.

Chevy trucks are good too, but Ford has better engines for torque and towing in that era. The straight-6 and V8 in the old Ford are strong and can last a long time.

The parts and community for Ford trucks are big, so you can find help easy.

Thanks Shifty, I do not get much time to work on it as of late. I spend most of my time taking care of my wife. Still have some things to do on my truck. However, it does run strong and is fun to drive when I can. My tires have some tread for now. However, I want to replace them with 33.50s (used to have them a while back on my truck) after they get worn out.
