Brake light schematic

Hi guys,

Can someone post up a schematic of the light circuit. I'm trying to help a friend troubleshoot. We have a no brake lights condition. No power seems to be getting from the switches to the brake lights.

Its an 86 930


Thanks in advance!

Have you checked the hydraulic brake light switches ?

There are a number of articles on this subject. Here is one:

86 Brake Lights come on late..adjustment anywhere?

Some are removing the hydraulic switches altogether to get away from the problem, me included. one example:

Mechanical Brake Light Switch Modification - '78 SC

Hope this helps

One of the switches is bad, but I jumpered them out so they shouldn't be the issue. Still no power.
