So I got a local shop to install a clutch for me which the completed in an day for 350 so not bad. Ok I drive it and its fine, but then I notice some problems. Ok without even having the key in the car and I hit the brake the noise it makes when you leave your lights on happen. It happens. When I hit the brakes my front drivers side corner light comes on. The cruise control only work when the headlight are on, because the the brake light in the back window comes on when you turn on the light just like your hitting your brakes.
Can you all Please help me figure it out. The guys are saying nothing the did had a thing to do with this, but I think something is crossed or pinched.
Also I don't remember if we have a cruise control light or not??
Please help!
Thanks!

 

$350 for a clutch install? Thats insanely cheap. Sounds like you have a bad brake light switch. It's def not related to the clutch install. However, there is a wiring harness that runs accross the seam where the tranny bolts up to the tranny. Not sure what those wires are for, but it's very easy to get them pinched between the engine and tranny when bolting it back up. Thats the only thing I can think of. Get your ecu scanned and see if there is a brake light switch fault or anything. We don't have a cruise light.

 

Ok thanks! I'll put it up on the rack tomorrow. Where would the brake light switch be and its weird cause I have never experienced these problems before I put it in the shop.

 

You don't need to put the car up. The harness runs on top of the engine/tranny - dead center where they bolt up to each other. Just pop the hood and look back/down there. Brake light switch is behind the brake pedal. An issue with the brake light switch can certainly affect cc and cause haunted brake lamp activation.

 

Well if it is on top where the tranny bolts to the engine then wouldn't you think there might be a big chance that it can get pinched when putting the trans back in?
