From: I may be getting old but I refuse to grow up
Trying to understand a wierd problem with my wifes G6 (see it happen on a Malibu also) We were told that the brake lights were on whhile driving an went out when we stopped, completely opposite to the way they're supposed to work. When we got home I had my wife watch and they were working fine.
What is happening, is it something I need to fix and if I do what's causing it to do this. The brake lights used to be controlled of a switch on the brake pedal are they controlled by the body control module now?
