Hello, like stated; my taillights turn on with the running light but none of the brake lights turn on when i push the brake. All the bulbs and fuses are good and I replaced the switch but nothing works. The car was orginally auto so the wiring diagram is different than a manual. the brake switch is getting voltage when the pedal is steppedd on but the bulds aren't. The brakes worked for awhile after the swap then they just stopped. I was also wanting to wire my clutch switch for NLTS. and I looked under and say a few wires cut does anyone know where they go? Maybe if i reconnect them and the lights may work. Any Help is great, I'm just tired of only driving in the day and using hand signals.

I would go take a picture, however mine is also a auto converted to manual. I originally connected those wires wrong and got brake lights when i pushed the clutch in. I guess I'm not exactly sure what you need? You see cut wires, reconnect them and go from there, or are they not of the same colors?
