So when i bought my car 3 years ago a few months later my brake lamp indicator went on, im assuming this means a brake light was burnt out. Well i yesterday i replaced them all. I have two working lights next to the reverse light and the unpper mount light in my window. All three work when i tap the breaks.... do we have a break light im missing, why the hell does my dash still say break lamp indicator?

If you have a coupe then theres two more brake light bulbs on the bottom corners, so there is 7 in total, 5 brake 2 turn signal!!

in the corners? i got the two by the reverse lights and upper mount. i pulled the carpet back in the corners all those bulbs were the blinker and the the lights that are always on at night, i also saw a hird harness but no bulbs atach to it its just a plug that plugs into another harnes... i must be missing something these lights are in the same housing as the blinker? ya i have a coupe 4doors are for familys not people who hot dog there accords :afro:

Is it the light that actually says "Brake?" If so, you either need to replace your brake pads because the brake fluid level is low, or the float in the brake fluid reservoir has become saturated and you need replace the brake fluid reservoir cap. Just crack the hood and have a look at the brake fluid level, get back to us.

... I dont think thats what drift was talking about at all. He was reffering to the light wich says brake and comes on when the ebrake is pulled pads low air in lines etc. I am talking about the light wich says "brake lamp".

Can anyone confirm coupes have more brake lights than the ones next to the reverse lights and the upper mount. Becuase if so im not seeing a place for more lights in the blinker housing at least, or on the light bar.

do all four of those bottom lights light up when you hit the brake. those 4 and the top mount make total of 5 brake lights that should be on when you step on the brakes
