| Description of the problem | When the headlights are on the brake lights do not work. When the headlights are off the brake lights work. When you turn on the headlights the brake lights go on. The middle brake light in the rear window does work. Took car to ford dealer, $149. For diagnosis. Dealer spoke with ford and they are willing to make repair at a cost of $100. Rather then $1000. Which is what it would cost if ford did not pay for repair. I noticed that others had the same problem. Now i am worried that something else may go wrong with the electrical system. |
