My brake light stopped working, I have since changed brake switch, and now lights do work, but will not stay on . As you depress pedal they go out. All other lights are working.

If there is any adjustment at the brake lamp switch, did you get it adjusted, correctly? Is your high-mount brake lamp affected, also? Check voltage to and from the brake switch for brakes, does it fayed out?
