Hey ChrisS,
yes I already had that piece you talking about replaced after I had the first alternator replaced. My third brake light & brake lights stayed on after I picked up car from shop. Took to shop next day & that's what they said was replaced. They thought it was a pinched wire but was my alternator. Took car to another shop for another alternator.
That shop said go to a auto electronic shop specializing in elctrical work or speed shop who knows motor swaps. never got around to that yet. So you think I still could have a pinched wire somewhere. My car was parked in front of my house when it got hit.
Thank you for responding back
