Same thing happened to me, see http://the-superspec-journey.blogspot.co.uk/2013/12/brake-lights.html

 

I assume you have checked all the fuses ? As you know the Superspec wiring diagram is not overly helpful, but I doubt the brake lights and fuel pump are related. Again, what I have managed to figure out as regards the wiring is at:

If you have any more information you can offer it will be gratefully received.

 

BTW, I regularly drive by Corby in my Superspec on my way to see the grandchildren, so if you want me to drop by just PM me. Always love discussing Superspecs

Really great info Alan, I am in the process of re-doing the loom on my super spec (built 13 years ago!) this is really useful info.

 

Thanks
