     Hello, Bonjour,
     
     
     My name is Eduardo Hernandez and I have a Renault Medallion.   About a 
     couple of months ago, the turn signals stopped working for no apparent 
     reason.  I replaced the flasher, that didn't work.  I checked all the 
     lightbulbs, they were all fine.  I've had mechanics look over it and 
     no one can figure out what is wrong.  After the mechanics looked it 
     over, the hazard lights would turn on when I would break.  
     
     Last night I was reading through the manuel and it said that the turn 
     signal controls were in the trunk with the break lights.  So I took 
     out the rear light assembly, checked the bulbs, then put it back.  
     Then only the brake light would light.  I thought to myself, great! 
     This is working.  So I went to the other side to do the same thing.  
     This time, all the brake lights and hazard lights turned off and would 
     not go on when I depressed the brake pedal.
     
     So now I don't have brake lights!!!
     
     What is going on?!?!?!
     
     For the past year, the battery warning light on the dashboard would 
     flash on and off.  Sometimes it would last a short time, other times 
     it would last a long while.  But nothing could be found wrong with the 
     alternator, the fuses, nothing.
     
     I live in Los Angeles, California, USA.
     
     Do you know anyone in this area that I can talk to?  I rather not go 
     to a dealership because I just can't afford them.
     
     Sincerely,
     
     Eduardo Hernandez
