xb instrument light problem trouble shooting please help
Ok heres the new story... I figured i would post a new trend because people didnt understand if fixed one problem but now working on another.
My BRAKE light and SRS light is on... Now on the brake light it is very dim. but when i turn on my park lights it brightns up. when i use the handbrake it looks like it has a power surge cause it dims just a little bit when i move it up and down. As for the srs light i dont konw why it stays on. I did have the air bags disconnect causeing my vsc abs trac lights to be on. once i hooked it up those light went off.. I disconnected the battery to reset it but its still on.. i looked for fuses and relays but i didnt find anything for it.. I looked at the wiring diagram for the brake light and it didnt help to much. It shows that it runs through the vsc system and loops around.
This car was stripped to the bone to install dynomat and painting.... everything was reinstalled. I did not reinstalled the ignition switch. Its a keys less car...push button start/remote start.. I dont think any of the wiring would have to do with the ingition switch being gone.
Like i said the only lights that are on now is brake and srs.. If you can help please comment. Thanks David

That is possible because ther was 2 wires that went to the ignition switch that i cant figure out what they are.. I tryied to look them wires up on the diagrams but cannot locate them. So it very possible. I will hook up the switch tonight and see if that will fix the problem.

yeah thats what im going to do.. Test it for ground and postive ..... then if its an acc or on.. then wire it up to my key less switch... IF that is the problem.... But thanks for the info.. Didnt think about them wires on the side the igntion switch.. heres a link to the wire diagrams I dont know if you want to take a look at and see if you can find then wires.. if you ahve the time..... im still trying to find them on there.

Well i installed my ignition switch back in to see if it made a difference. It didnt.. The brake light and srs light is still on but with the brake light half as bright as the srs light

not necessarily, if you blow an ABS fuse your ABS light will come on because the ECU is no longer detecting the presence of your ABS system. ECU's tied into everything in these cars
