1984 Fiero Base: Stop Lights stay on, hazard lights don't blink, clicking noise? (Page 1/2)

1984 Fiero Base SE, the rear lights stay on, the hazard lights come on but don't blink, I replaced the fuse but nothing changed. When I detach or attach the battery cable I hear a clicking noise. Any ideas? Please try and be detailed about any solutions you come up with. Thanks.

Do all of the rear lamps stay on, or only the outside lamps?

The rear lights stay on, not just the sides.

So ALL of the red rear lamps stay on.
Are the backup lights on as well?
(Not asking about the side marker or license plate lights.)

I don't think the brake lights are working. The rear (white) lights do come on in reverse.

Sounds to me like you have a Relay that is going bad or stuck. I had the same thing happen in my 84. as well as my s-10.

In the 1984 Fiero, are they the two black boxes on firewall (inside the engine compartment) behind the driver's seat? Can they be cleaned or do they need to be replaced?

Do you think the brake light switch under the brake pedal might be the cause of it, if it is stuck?

Those should be the Fuel pump relay and AC if you got it.

To check the switch, unplug the switch and listen for the clicking noise you hear when disconnecting the battery.

When I get home from work I will check the location of the brake relay for you. I can hear it click behind my head somewhere when the car is off.

Do you mean disconnect the brake light switch under the pedal, and then listen for clicking noises?

Thanks.
