I think they might of used these on that year.

Did you see anything laying on the floor that was plastic?

There is a little rivet looking plastic button that snaps on the bracket. The switch plunger contacts the button when you release the brake pedal. If the button fell off or broke the switch doesn't get depressed and the brake lights stay on.

I believe the dealer has them.







Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.

Did not see anything on the floor.Is it possible that the brake calipers are sticking.They were not changed out when brakes replaced.

No, they would have nothing to do with brake lights.
