Hi, I have a strange problem with my accent GSI 2002. My dash
trunk open light and my trunk lamp are always on. But the strange part
is that vwhen I press the break. The both lamp goes off. If I release
the break the lamp goes on again. I check the schematic there is no
conection with the break circuit. I mesure the voltage at the lamp and
I mesure that: power side 12V, gnd side 0.7V or 12 V when break is
press. Could you help me with that.

Thank you
 
Check all your interior and exterior fuses. I seem to recall this
occurring when one of the fuses blows, but I'm not sure which one.

Which wire has power when the brakes aren't on: the orange/black or the
green/orange wire?

So I'm looking for the wire colors wherever you made this measurement.
I'm presuming it's at the trunk lamp, but if it's elsewhere, tell me where
it is. What's the wire color of the wire with the 12V, and what's the wire
color of the wire with the voltage that depends on brake application? Per
the shop manual, one wire going to the trunk lamp is orange/black and the
other is green/orange.

I took the other mesurement at the dash lamp. I just take the
mesurement at the trunk lamp and here the result: Wire orange/ black
12.5 V with or without break (lamp unplug) wire Green/orange without
break : 0.1V with break 10.9V. I hope you will able to help me with
that info.

Thank you
