Thanks in advance.

 

You're not in a model-specific forum so that's nothing like enough info!

 

I've moved your post from the General Tech section to the X-Type section where members with the same model can provide a better response.

Fuse panels are under the steering wheel on the firewall (it is easier to get at if you pull the small compartment near your left knee), and under the hood on the driver side just in front of the radiator tank, along the fender.


The cruise gets its run signal from the same circuit, there is switch on the brake pedal mounting bracket.


I'm not home, but I'm sure someone will pop in with the fuse number shortly!

 

Been playing in there all day. Still can't find the right one. My manual says nothing about break lights. Closes I found was manual transmission cruise control. But mines an auto.

 

F90 Mini 7.5 Brown Stop lights, cruise control.


Is in the passenger compartment fuse block. Lowest left side fuse, closet to the door.


Are ALL the taillights out, or just the brake lights?

 

Just the break lights.
bottom left is a red 10 fuse
the location is f12 my fuses only go up to the mid 50's.

 

Just an update I called the dealership and they said it could be fuse f51 or the switch on the brake pedal itself. so I will check those out and report back.

 

Ok I figured it out. after looking at the switch I knew right away what the problem was, It was just hanging by the wires. undamaged but just hanging in mid air. no screws on the floor no broken plastic. so i just put it back on, it has a twist fit.

I was like wow that was easy so i tried it out and nope still a no go. I went back down to find it felt lose and I cant see how to reattach it other then to add 2 screws witch i cant find. so its zip tied for now.

next problem is the pedal doesn't reach it by like 2-3 mm that seems weird like a small piece of rubber is missing like a foot to trigger the switch. so I'm using a piece of tape over lapped for now. I will have to order some parts I guess but as they work for now I can finely go get some groceries lol . Thanks for all the help and I hope this is helpful for someone in the future.
