Yesterday, I go to crank the A. After 6-7 turns, it has not fired yet. I check and I have a blown fuse. I replace the fuse and immediately, it burns out again. Today, I isolate the problem down to the brake light switch. I suspect that I put a reproduction switch on the car in the 90s but could not swear to that. Is my only option for eliminating brake light switch woes to replace with an original. I have read that A&L has a good 30-31 but not the one that mounts on the side of the transmission. What are my options?
