Re: 84 coupe brake light

     Rick:
     
        If the 84 Coupe uses the same light cluster as my '86 try this.  
     Remove the module and disconnect the wiring harness.  Visually inspect 
     the cluster.  Look for melted plastic rivets.  The tracks that conduct 
     from the connector to the lamp socket are held by compression. Over 
     the years the heat from the brake lamps will melt one or more of the 
     plastic rivets keeping the unit together.  If you see any indication 
     of this drill a hole through the entire cluster including the track 
     somewhere near the melted rivet and secure it with a pop rivet.  Both 
     of my stop lamps had this occur.
