For the past 3 weeks I have been in and out of the auto shop. The problem started when the shifter became stuck in park. I was told it was the brake light switch which I replaced.
Now when I shut my car off and take the key out of the ignition the dashboard lights tend to come on about 10-15 minutes later draining the battery. I played around a bit and discovered that when I depress the brake a few times with the key out of the ignition and the car off the dashboard flash on and off and tend to stay on unless I continue to tap the brake pedal.
In addition, maybe coincidentally, I have had my left rear brake light and window (third) brake light burn out in the past three weeks.
What could be causing the problem. Is it a faulty brake light switch. I was also told it could possibly be the ignition switch?
Thank you for your help!
