    E brake? Totally strange. Never heard of that. Have your lights been acting funny otherwise else?

    nope they open and close fine no noises although last year one side of the gear was stripped and making the famous grinding sound, but i turned it over and that solved every thing. till now??

    Need to buy brass gears. Most likely it isnt reading the down signal.

    Ebrake up kicks off the driving lights so this is my guess... and im like 78 percent sure of it

    Same as before.

    The motor is reading it isnt in a down/up position. New brass gears or a new motor will cure this

    well my brakes were poping when ever i took off and i could tell that it would slow me down once i let off.. .it was ok for about a week and the more i started to turn left a right it got worse..

    i went out on the highway and then everything locked up and i was slidin on rubber left some nice marks but messed up my hot rod.. called the tow truck went to the shop ..

    outcome of the stroy.. a rod in my suspention broke and took out some wires.. the wires going to my ABS and brakes cut whipeoout in half and my computer went nuts... went in to lock up.. $225 later runs like a champ.. idk if this is ur problem but might be a cool story..
