Drivers side brake light. It keeps burning out the bulbs. It melts the plastic around the metal line, the part that it plugs into. I have talked to other people that has the same problem.
I own a 1998 Chevy Venture minivan and on the date specified I was out with my family ( a snowy evening) when I went to apply the brakes and my turn signals on my dash went to a solid green. As I approached the red light a person in the car next to me advised me that I had no taillights. After getting home I did some research on the internet and found that this is a widespread problem where if moisture gets into the connector on the brake light assembly, it will cause the ground connector to short out and cause the brake lights to do some crazy things as well as the cruise control to disengage at certain times.
Anti-look brake system light came on and stayed on. Other lights are now flashing whem brakes are used. The main brake, signal and running lights have stipped working. The only brake lights working now are the led lights on the rear door. System is acting like it has a short or grounding condition. Unable to use this vehicle and is parked. Unable to repair this due to being on a fixed income. Vehicle was inspected and past the last part of April 2004.
