About six months ago I purchased an Audi 2003 TT Roadster. It came with a dealer installed rear deck luggage rack. I did not like the look of the rack, it interfered with the clean lines of the car. I removed the rack. Then I noticed a brake light warninf on the dash message. This was caused by the thrid break light being disconnected. Somehow in order to install the luggage rack, and use the rack built-in light, the dealer disconnected the top rear deck brake light.

I have not been able to determine how to fix this problem correctly. In the mean time I wired a light to the loose wires inside the trunk. While the light inside the trunk comes on when I apply the brakes, I don't see it and the dash message is gone. It is OK as temporary message, however I must fix this problem correctly. I would like to get the top rear deck brake light back.

Any suggestions?

 

so, im assuming its not as simple as connecting the center brake light harness to whatever it was that you disconnected from the rack?
