Anyone know of a inexpensive shop that can track down a brake light wiring issue? My brake lights and turn signals stopped working, I've checked all the bulbs, all the fuses, and replaced the brake switch. I tested the connection at the switch and as far as I can tell it's not getting any juice..... It's my only means of transportation.........

at least take your covers off and jiggle the harness around and see if that helps. The harness or pins may be loose or pulled out slightly.

Let me look through some prints and see if I can find one common area for the brake lights and turn signals.

Yes the colum covers. Look for burnt connections,loose wires,wires pushed out of connectors. Check continuity of the switch etc.

My buddy is having the same problem. He has tail lights but no break lights, turn signals or hazard's. Everytime he hits the break pedal it pop's the fuse. I checked all the wires and i can't find a bad spot where it might be grounding out.
