Another Problem??

[edogg27]

So on top of the ac unit not shutting off and the car not starting unless i rev it up now the brake lights stays on?? i really dont know whats going on. i mean it drives fine nothing has really changed in its performance it doesnt go all the way to the higher rps when i floor it a like it used to but idk whats all going on.

Uhhh, weird. Perhaps the brake light switch is malfunctioning.

As for the inability to achieve higher RPMs, perhaps it the fuel filter is partially restricted or clogged. When was the last time it was replaced?

[edogg27]

I never have. Im gonna change it this weekend and also is there and how to on here on cleaning the maf and throttle body?

[Towncivilian]

For cleaning the MAF and TB, see the bottom of this how-to.

If things start to fail at the same time it might be an electrical problem

[edogg27]

Well this isnt all at the same time so i think im ok and my brake light wa just low brake fluid. But my gas mileage just completly went down on me. I usually get about 210 miles to a tank and latley only 180 im thinking maybe a fuel filter? Idk but i need to fix my truck up soon because im never going to sell it.

[ottofalcon]

ok, do you have a cel?

[edogg27]

Ya it comes and goes

[Chuck Tribolet]

By brake light do you mean the indicator on the dashboard, or the red ones on the back of the car?

Low brake fluid won't turn on the ones in the back.

Ya on the dash its all gone now.

Get the engine codes pulled at AutoZone, even though the CEL isn't lit there's probably a stored code.
