Just wondering, but is there a simple way to bypass this and get working brake lights while fooling the ECU? Seems to me that shouldn't be all that hard to wire up, and then you have the best of both worlds.

It may be trickier than one would think because of the CAN bus...

or CAN't BUS in this case?

See what I did there...

Really? You can't just run a wire from the brake pedal to the lights and bypass the OEM wiring entirely? :confused:

I'm pretty sure the CAN bus will freak out. I'm not sure how much of the system is controlled via the bus, but I'm sure it will cause some issues.

well thats easy, if the fuse is only for a burnout... get a fuse, blow it, solder two leads to each side of the fuse, insert fuse in brake light fuse slot, run the wires to a button w/ (install a good fuse on the "hot" wire going to the button).

flip the button, brake lights are cut, burnout done, flip button back, brake lights back on.

That is a good idea... someone needs to do this with a brief write up.

Restarted the car and all lights went back to normal.

When the Wifey gets home I am gonna see if it does eliminate your brake lights ...


I wish I knew this earlier !

Thanks to whomever suggested this In one of the 12.9 threads !


you're welcome, I knew it was this way on my 350, so I was sure it would work on the 370. I actually have it on a toggle switch in my 350, it makes it much easier. ;)

Could you make a brief write up for those of us not so handy with a soldering gun? :o

If someone industrious on here wants to build an easy plug and play way to do this, complete with a switch, my cash is standing by :D

Kingbaby 11-12-2012 10:09 AM

The fuse does the job...

<------has a switch but not on the brake fuse, likes brake lights
