!!!Electrical Problem!!! Pls Help
The car won't start! I parked it, then, the next minute, tried to start again and nothing. I took off the positve and put it back on and it started... Then I tried to start again and nothing.
New battery, I changed the Ignition Switch', Spark plugs have been changed about 2 months ago.
Today I will change all the fuses.
I know I have a short somewhere. My right-side brake light keeps on going out when I step on the brake. When I step on the brake, the radio light and the clock goes off.
Please Help

You didn't elaborate HOW your car doesn't start: Cranks over but doesn't start or "click" and no cranking over, etc.
Sounds like you have a bad connections or low battery with the limited info you've given. You need to solve your short too.

Definitely a wiring problem from the brake light symptom. Tell us what's been done electrically on the car. New alarm system? New stereo? New amp in the trunk with a sub? Something was done to cause a short somewhere. Look at any new electrical gizmos to get to the culprit.
Also there are no fuses under the car, only in the car by the driver's left foot, and some realys and other fuses in the engine bay.

I meant under the hood (engine bay) & the relays.
The only thing changed were spark plugs and Altezza lights on the back.

I bet it's your Altezzas. They must have bad wiring or a short in them somewhere. Put your stock tail lights back on and see if your problems go away. If they do, there's your answer

Sounds like a short somewhere (radio turns off when drawing power for brake lights).
Keep in mind that fuses are either blown or not blown. They do not gradually go out, so there is no reason to change a fuse that's not blown.
