My brake lights are always staying on. I've tried to push the button by hand on the brake light switch and yet they still stay on. I don't know if they should shut off for this, but I even removed the brake light switch entirely and my brake lights are still on. Do I need a new brake light switch?

Hello,

There is a brake light relay that is stuck on and probably needs to be replaced. Here is a wiring diagram and a guide to help you get the problem fixed.

Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken
