#1: side light comes on when braking :/ Author: QuArTz, Location: South CoastPosted: Sat Jan 28, 2012 8:52 pm ---- As above, today I noticed that when I press the brake light, not only the do all three brake lights come on but so does my off side, side light.
when the lights are on and I press the brake the side lights is fine.
My side lights are l.e.d but it's the first time ive noticed this odd side light trick.

The problem with mine was a loose wire on the where the lights plugged into the car.
Problem solved by connecting the wire properly.
