Well an update. I traced things back and couldn't find a short. Fuses were fine. I decided to take it to a mechanic. It turns out, the brake fluid was soo low it wouldn't register the brake light. To be honest the brakes seemed sluggish, which was one of the reasons I took it in.

I want to learn how to fix my car myself but, brakes I will leave to someone who knows what there doing.

He also showed me where there was a leak in the master brake cylander.

Anyway the car is fantasticaly fun.

Be well,
Mike V
