I noticed that my rear brake lights don't come on until a lot of pressure is applied to the pedal. Is there a way to correct this to have the lights come on under light pressure? Is there an adjustment somewhere?

The brake light switch is under the pedal board and behind the brake pedal. There is an adjustment there.

It’s simple. Just check the pedal and adjust to trigger the light with less travel.
