brake lights stay on while driving and after parking and killing motor. have to hit brake to get lights to turn off. sometimes come on during night or day while sitting idle and motor is off.

Hi crowbar999,

Check for a worn brake pedal switch stopper rubber or excessive pedal switch clearance or a defective brake switch.
