Okay CA Ford's I had my Fox for a while now slowly an quietly building it. I came to a little weird issue which I never had when I bought this project. I'm gonna try to explain this the best way I can I apologize to anyone if you can't understand what I'm saying lol. Here goes nothing the other day I jumped into the car and push the brakes to check my brake lights (which worked fine) but I noticed my gauge cluster an headlights side marker came on at the same time while pushing the brake pedal ( I tried it several times to make sure it wasn't just a one time thing). So I checked all fuses to make sure they were all good and everything looked fine. Has anyone ever had to deal with this issue? Is there a way to fix it? Any knowledge on this issue would be of great help.

Thanks CA Ford's

Deandre

Sounds like someone rigged the wiring up to power the headlights off your brake pedal. Check under the dash where the brake pedal is at to see if there's extra wires running to there if I remember correctly there should only be two running to there.
