Default 1995 XJS Brake Lights - Help Please

My late hubby started this forum for me years ago and now I REALLY need your help. All of my brake lights are gone on my 95 XJS convertible.. My friend has checked bulbs and the brake switch under the dash ( the switch is not seized). We need to know where the electrical connections are for the lights and what the 4 pin connector coloured wires got to. I have down loaded a plethora of manual stuff but there is no wiring harness diagrams and nothing specific to the brake lights in any of the materials - very weird
Would greatly appreciate some help

In this case, working without a wiring diagram is pure folly. There has to be a wiring diagram somewhere. Here is one for my 94.

Gabrielle,

I've moved your question from Canada Region to XJS forum. This is the place to post technical questions about your model.

If your instrument illumination is out as well this may help

OMG - can't believe where the relay is. Had to litterally crawl in the trunk to even get a glimpse. Thank you for the schematic; helped a lot.

This was invaluable. Obviously the manuals I downloaded were not nearly as helpful.
