Never noticed before but do the rtvs have brake lights? I see there are 4 wires to to the lights in the rear but I cant find the brake light switch. Can you help me out?</p>
 
Yes it has brake lights. I believe the switch is near the top of the pedal . I will check this out tomorrow to make sure. I want to tell you what I did with my tail lights. I forgot I had my spray rig back there a few years ago and backed up at night with those dim oem tail lights. I broke the lens and just went to Wally world and bought the set of boat trailer tail lights. I modified the mounting plate holes slightly and just hooked these up. They have a clear bottom with the drain holes for water . This makes for a bright glow if you slightly touch the brakes while backing up. Very nice here on the farm. A little dust does get in there from time to time. And mud flaps are a good thing to keep accumulations from blocking out the light. They are only slightly larger in size and are great for me. Plus the set (with a lot of extra trailer wire) was less than 28$. I sure am happy with em cause I can SEE. Yesssssssssssss. Bordercollie</p>
 
Ok. I'm s orry for the wait. I just remembered and ran back to the house to post this. The switch is near the top of the pedal on my unit. If you open the hood and look just behind the brake fluid res. you can see a spring that pulls the pedal back to place. Under this spring are 2 screws/ bolts. They hold the brake switch in place. You brake switch may just need a good cleaning and wd 40 ing. or dusting with dry lube.?? You can also trace it by feeling the wires above the brake pedal and feel the plug in where it attaches to the switch. Gook luck and hope this helps. Post if you need anymore info or possible part #.

While passing by my RTV just a minute ago, I decided to look for myself as it hadn,t occurred to me before that those lites back there may light up when I hit the brake pedal. I almost missed it and had almost closed the hood thinking maybe it was one of those optional at extra cost thingys. Sure 'nuff it was right where Bordercollie said it would be. They did a good job of hiding it.</p>
