Brake lights were out totally. I replaced one bulb and now they will not go off. The bulb I replaced looks good to me.

Hi there,

You will need to check for a faulty brake light switch, this is located at the top of the brake pedal, you will need to check for power in and out of the switch when depressed, no power should pass through the switch with it up.
