Electrical problem
2002 Kia Sedona 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

My Battery and Brake Lite come on when I start the car. Before they didn't. At first the car stalled then it wouldn't start so I went and got a new battery. Switched it then I started it then the lights still come on. Please help me.

First have alternator checked if it passes then the problem is in printed circuit in instrument panel. A diode has failed causing the grounding of charge and brake light.
