[Autox] No brake lights

Funny you mention that - 3 wires (power, ground, & data) is a LOT easier to
troubleshoot than some of the rats nests we've had over the years.

Coming from an IT support perspective I would LOVE to only have 3 wires to
check/review when troubleshooting a problem.  ;-)

I sort of remember hearing about a car, perhaps the latest Corvette,
which has three wires going to the rear of the car - power, ground
and data.  There's a switching computer mounted back there that
interprets the data line and turns on the appropriate lights.

I bet that would be a pain to debug at home!
