Hello,

Can you check for power at fuse # f76 20 amp under the hood fuse panel. Here is a guide to help us test for power and the brake light wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what happens.

When you use the jumper wire, are you taking power from a different supply?

Then there is power to the switch. If you manually actuate the switch, do you get power out?
