My mechanic has just completed the conversion to Vacuum brakes using the system from MPBrakes. The brakes themselves work fine, however, the brake lights have stopped working, except for the third brake light, which seems to work fine!

Anyone have any ideas as to why this has happened and how how to fix it?

Thanks!

I'd say the lower switch behind the brake pedal. The mechanic may have unplugged it to keep from running down the battery while doing the installation. The upper switch has a vacuum hose on it and an electrical connector. That switch controls the center upper brake light and the cruise control disengage. The lower switch controls the tail brake lights.
