try testing the switch that controls your 4 way hazards...some vehicles run the circuit through them, in a few cases ive seem them go bad...not exactly the part you would expect to fail or be the cause...give it a shot

I am curious, would this also effect the third brake light as well? Just a thought..

seems logical to me, but who knows, you know how the manufacturers never make things as they should, always gotta be difficult.

perfect example! Why couldn't they have just done a straight pipe w/some kind of bolt on sheet metal shield or something? I'm sure that would have been more cost effective.
