Trying to diagnose the third brake light in my 1996 Buick Century Wagon.
The first time a shop 'repaired' it, they said they removed a ground strap somewhere and it worked. Pretty hack. I found that resulted in the rear defroster turning on when hitting the brake pedal.
Eventually it stopped working again, possibly when I replaced one of the rear lift struts that hold open the trunk.
Another shop then fixed it by running a wire along that driver-side trunk prop-rod. Not sure where they tied into. It worked for a while, but again has stopped functioning.
I'm hoping someone here might have a high quality wiring diagram to share, so that I can DIY it and fix all the hackwork that has been done back there.
I have these ones that I've attached, but they are so pixelated that I can't quite use them.
