Simon,
No fuse blown. No bulbs burned out.
I had wired together the green wires last year (green means ground right
?) because one of them was frayed which had caused a burn mark on a
connector. It worked for a year -- fine.
Now none of the rear lights for brake work. I'll try a volt meter but I
don't think any juice is connecting to the bulbs at all.
For testing the ground connection should I connect an external wire to
the car chassis to the green wires ?
