Brake light fuse keeps blowing out, no brake lights 
Solved
Toyota Corolla 1991 1.6, 4cycl 157001 miles
My brake lights have been going out quite often. Usually i change the fuse because it burnt out. I've chg'd the fuse three times today and when i press my brakes you can clearly hear the "pop" when the fuse blows out. Clearly a bigger problem exist, how bad can this get? I have had a few people tell me to put a higher fuse (20) in (15). . . No, not doing that

Check all the wires around the tail lights. I had the same problem when the light on the spoiler of my Corolla S had a opened wire it was shorting on the metal causing the fuse to blow

I applied antirust spray in fuse box. Now my GLI 2011 corolla doesnt start. The fan has become direct with turning the key. Has the spray caused some circuit problem or so?

- Not Working: Break Lights, Tail Lights, Dash Lights, Blinkers, Shift Out of Park
- Functional: Fuses, Tail-light Bulbs, Hazard Blinkers, Interior Lights, Engine Starts/Runs, Dashboard Controls, Drives w/Manually Releasing Shift Interlock
I can only imagine it's a relay somewhere? However, I cant find anything on the inter-web that helps. I even removed the glove box because many web sites state that as a relay box location...nope.
Did I mention that this is my wife's car? Did I also mention that my car is a Ford, and so is my truck? Neither of which have any of these kind of dumb problems?!

Keeping Getting different electrical issues - is there a hidden cause?
Toyota Corolla 1994 200000 miles
1994 Corolla DX, generally in good running condition.
Problem one: drove the car to a restaurant parking lot, picked up my food, went to the car to drive home and it wouldn’t start at all. No warning or precursor whatsoever. Tow it to a mechanic, replace the starter and “maintainence to wires”, seems to work okay for a week or so.
Problem two: drove car to park, drove home. Noticed that the brake lights were on, even when the car was parked, key off, no one in it. Deduced it must be the brake pedal or switch. Takes a while to take it to my usual mechanic, he replaces the brake switch. Seem… Read complete
