I've tested them out, and sure enough, if I'm braking lightly, they don't go on, but when my foot goes all the way down the pedal, the lights will work. I know the emergency flashers, reverse lights, and the normal running lights are normally functional. Does anyone have any idea how I can adjust the sensitivity of the brake lights? >> I had the same problem a few years back with my 69 fasty, my problem was that my switch was shot. mabey you can try bleeding your brakes. I beleive later models have a back up switch in cas one half of your dual circuit master cylinder goes out. how are your brakes otherwise?? if your brakes are fine then you need to take a look at the switch. Its on your master cylinder, take a look at it and go from there. most of the manuals explain this in great detail. good luck!
