My generator light come on when I step on the brakes. Has anyone else experienced this or know the cause?

The fact that the fuse isn't blown does NOT mean that you don't have a short in the brake lights or back-up lights.
A minor short (one that won't blow the fuse) in either circuit, will create the exact problem you have. I've seen it several times. Specifically, look on the side of your tranny for the back-up light switch. Check to see if one of the wires has come out and is rubbing on the transmission. |
