My mechanic said my brake lights are on all the time, I did not notice this before until he mentioned it to me, he ONLY had time for the electronic ignition install, lots of cars there to work on he said. Anyone have some steps, things I can start with on correcting this?

I did look at it today when I was down there checking the indicator lights for the fan/defrost assembly 3 are now working but the last right bottom indicator is not, tried new bulbs and pulling out the tiny wire leads on the bulbs but it appears that the one socket might be bad. Anyway back to the brake lights staying on when the key is on, I took these pictures and it looks like 4 nuts need to come off and then I think the board will come off around the gas pedal to get to the brake light switch. First pictures show 3 nuts left and center, second pic shows one nut right of the gas pedal. Does that look right probably just these 4 nuts ??
