Hello All,
I have a 2005 Sprinter 3500 (Freightliner) that carries a Gulf Stream Vista Cruiser Mini motorhome.
This winter on January 8, 2018 I noticed the brake lights on the motorhome. I had used it December 18-20 2017 and nothing was out of the ordinary then. I couldn't figure it out then so simply removed the wires from the light bulb assembly as I couldn't figure out what fuse to pull.
I took it to the mechanic on April 9th after replacing the brake light wires so I could drive it safely. No brake lights showed then and also the brake lights did not light when the brake pedal was pressed. The mechanic found a broken wire in a maze of wires that are part of the Signal/Brake system installed to allow for North American trailers to plug in.
After using the motorhome on April 13th, I noticed the brake lights on again the next morning. When I press on the brake pedal, the heater fan begins to run and the dash lights light up. That's a bit weird. If anyone can offer help with this problem, I will be more than pleased as the Sprinter goes to the mechanic next Monday.
If I have posted in the incorrect forum, please help me get it to the right place.
Thanks,
Rob
