Default What happens when i remove the brake fuse

Ok guys i did some research on this but really didnt find the answer to my question what would happen if i remove the brake fuse. Also were is it located.

Im asking this becouse i have a AT Z and im going to the track this friday and i want to use the full power of my z and maybe heat the tires just a bit to get a better launch.

when you press the gas and brake (powerbrake) our cars the computer tells the car to kill the power to the engine so it bogs down. when you remove the brake fuse, (located in the kick panel by your left foot) it does two things. IT MAKES YOUR BRAKE LIGHTS NOT WORK first of all, so make sure you only do this at the track and it lets your car powerbrake. now the problem i had in my Auto G35 sedan i had is when i pulled the brake fuse, it wouldnt let me take it out of park, the shifter would just stay in park no matter what i did. so to solve this problem you will need to put it on a switch that will allow you to turn it off after you have it in drive, rev etc

good luck

Do a search on "brake fuse" for another option. I just gave a short review on pulling a plug in the engine bay near the master cylinder.
