Where is the fuse for brake lights?
power distribution center
Like all fuses, the brake light system fuse can be found in the power distribution center, which is under the dashboard or tucked away underneath the hood. Never heard of the power distribution center? It’s just the technical name for a fuse box.
Are there brake lights out on a Freightliner pusher?
I have a 99 Newmar, Dutch Star, pusher. Went for a state inspection found I have two brake lights out. One in the center up high is working. I have checked everything at my level. I am hearing there are diodes in the brake light circuit. Found a Freightliner bulletin and sure enough there is a brake light harness kit.
Why are my brake lights red on my Freightliner?
Typically, diodes are used on the tow vehicle. I think you’re headed in the wrong direction. Is your Freightliner chassis red stop and turn signals (3 way circuit) or does it have separate amber turn signals (4 way circuit). If you have red turn and stop lights I would suspect either a fuse or the turn signal multi-switch assembly.
Why are my brake lights not working on my truck?
They done a similar deal on mine. Brake lights not working narrowed it down to the AMU. Problem fixed got home doing a walk around on the truck and noticed something hanging a couple of inches from the driveshaft. Turns out it was the complete block where the AMU sensor is located with all the air lines.
Where are the brake lights on a Freightliner M2 106?
Located on the frame crossmember just forward of the rear axle. When looking at it, it will be the switch to the right (driver side) of the cluster, have air lines in and out and a 6 pin harness going into it. Please save yourself expensive repair bills and time to trace wires, locate fuses/relays, multiplexing… yada yada.

Why are the brake lights not working but the tail lights are?
Blown out light bulbs are the most common reason for why the brake lights not working but the tail lights are. Remove the screws from the bulb lens (which you can access through the trunk or see your vehicle repair manual to get the exact location). Push the bulbs and turn them counterclockwise to remove from the socket.
