Hello,
I had a car sterio deck installed, and discovered recently that none of my brake lights are working. I'm not 100% certain it's related, but I would assume so. How should I go about diagnoseing the problem? I replaced the fuse and it did not change anything. Should I next replace the brake switch, maybe the installation guys broke it while playing around the dash? If so how do I go about fixing that in my make/model?my last concern, should I be concerned about an elleterical short that occured? Is that an expensive problem to fix? Thank you in advance for your time and help. Any ideas or a are helpful.

Thank You,
Kathryn

Maybe the stereo guy short out the brake circuit-check the stop fuse and the brake switch
