Default ABS Code 95

I have a 95 Z28 A4 that shows a code 95 ABS inop, says there is an open circuit in the brake switch. Also the left turn signal does not work and the bulbs are good. I was wondering if the brake switch was bad or anything else. Has anyone been here before or know of what the problem is? Any help at all would be greatly appreciated as this is really pissing me off.

How did you pull your ABS codes? And have you checked your third brake light bulbs (theres 2 bulbs in there and both must be working)

Yeah 3rd brake light will kill your ABS and your cruise if it's not working. On the signal, have you checked your front bulbs too? Does the emergency flashers work?

I have done the 98 up conversion to my car and has the SS hood and spoiler. All LED lights in the spoiler work as they should or at least appear to. I have a scan tool at my shop that is sold by one of the major tool companies and it is not just a cheapy autozone scanner. Emergency flashers and front bulbs work as they should as well and this problem only occurs intermittently.

Probably a short in the arm. As far as the ABS, I don't know about that one.

Check your bulbs to make sure they are the right part number.

My ABS doesn't work (the front to sensors are bad, disconnected, or whatever, I think it had line lock before) but my cruise works fine. Or is that something that a bad light will kill, and not just the ABS being out?
