Just noticed that my brake lights are on when the ignition is on. What are the usual suspects? Thanks.

The single brake switch is located on the pedal cluster. It has an arm which contacts the brake pedal lever and may need to be adjusted.

Thanks, Spoke. I'll dig into that tomorrow.

It's like a Deadman s switch. Contact is open, as long as it's making Contact the light will be off. .
It's spring loaded to close. So the pedal is pressed and the circuit closes and the circuit is complete.


Probably just needs adjusting.

Or the arm is on the wrong side of the disc on the rod.
