Hello forum.
I am a new owner of a used 2006 Titan with the tow package. I am having a strange electrical issue that I could use some help resolving. My brake lights do not work when my headlights are on. 3rd brake light works fine, and the brake lights work fine with my headlights are off, but the minute I turn the headlights on and press the brake pedal, the rear lights go out.
Doing some research online, it appears that it could be due to a bad ground somewhere, or a bad socket. I checked the fuses and everything seems fine there. Also, it appears the previous owner installed an aftermarket brake controller for a trailer, but I don't have a trailer hooked up to my truck.
My first question is whether or not anyone has had this particular problem. My second question is where is the ground to the brake lights located? I'd like to at least attempt to fix this myself before I take it to a garage or dealership to get fixed. Thanks in advance for any help/responses.
