Brakes problem
1995 Toyota Tercel 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

I just had notice that my brake lights weren't working so I had changed the fuse. Now When I replaced the fuse, the lights won't turn off...It stays on even if the car is off. So I just took it out to see what are the other problems please help...Thanks Chamoritagrl08

Okay Gurl-you need to check the brake switch-follow the brake pedal till it meets the brake support bracket-you'll find it here-inspect for broken pieces if so replace the switch-its staying on bcuz the plunger on the switch is depressed this keeps it power up. try adjusting it -Good Luck-Adios
