We've been working on my son's new to him XJ. Its been 2 months of upgrading/repairing things that had been waiting to be done. Its a 2001 Limited.
One of the upgrades was to put in LED brake lights and backup lights. This was done initially when I thought we had a bad bulb because the passenger side running/brake light wasn't working. That turned out to be a wiring issue at the harness in the rear quarter. The quarter panel had rusted through ages ago and the harness was badly corroded. I patched the brake wire and it all was well because the running light now worked.
As I was following him on a test drive today, I noticed something weird.
When he hits his brakes, the ambers come on.
His running lights work. And his turn signals work. But his brakes are turning on the ambers and I don't know why. Any thoughts?
peace, tim
