I just purchased this 95 blazer and need help with getting the brake lights on. The turn signals work and the taillights work its just the actual brake lights that DO NOT come on. We replaced fuses and bulbs and still no luck. Any idea on why they wont come on??

 

Sounds like malfunctioning MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH my blazer had the same issue. Search for it maybe this will help ya.

 

Try the brake light switch, its a little switch under the dash thats clipped to the brake pedal. They go bad with time, mine was super sensitive so if i moved my foot at all the lights would shut off.

 

Thanks for the responses Brake light switch is definately something i need to check ordered the part hopefully this fixes the issue. Whoever had the car before me tried to wire a remote control start and there are wires missing everywhere Haynes maual not helping

 

I have had to replace the Brakelight switch twice because only my left brakelight would fail to work, they are total crap pieces but fairly cheap, so I would try that.

The wierd thing is the brakelight would work if I pushed forward on the turn signal stalk, I thought the multifunction switch was bad but turned out to be just a braklight switch.

Good luck

 

That multi-function switch was recalled by GM. I replaced mine twice and they replaced it again last week for free and gave me my part back. Just wanted to mention that. Anything I can get back I feel like I deserve after this Blazer, lol.

 

I have the same issue. My hazard lights and running lights work. Is the switch way up behind the dash board?

 

For 1 your Multi-Function switch has nothing to do with your brake lights. The switch is located under your dash but east to replace. Get under your dash touch your brake pedal and follow it up feeling around and you will see the switch somewhere around the upper part of your brake pedal.

 

Actually the multifunctioin switch has to do w/ your brake lights. I was pulled over because I had no brake lights. We checked the everything and soon my blinkers quit working and I got online and found out the switch works multiple things, brake lights included.

 

And the multi-function switch is the stick that is you use when you turn on your blinkers, bright lights, and cruise control. It also ties into the hazard lights. It is located in the steering column.
