I have a short somewhere in my camaro. My rear tail lights totally go out when I use my blinkers and or my brakes. I have no lights at all on either side on my back end. No signals No brake No reverse. I have changed the bulbs on all of them. This short is draining my battery. I just replaced my battery and it was totally dead in a day. Could my short be in my blinkers?Could this cause my battery to drain? I know it must be a direct short otherwise my battery would last longer. When I tap on my tail light lense then for a brief moment my brake lights do come on.Sometimes they stay on but not for long. When They are on as soon as I use my turnsignal they go out. Please any advise on this headache is greatly needed. Thanks DEE

 

might be a backfeed through the flashers or through the blinkers

 

[&:] year , model etc would be helpful. ground problems can cause them to not work properly but cant drain batteries. headlight switch comes to mind but more info and then some diagnostics may be in order kurt
