Check the operation and alignment of the stop light switch - usually located at the upper end of the brake pedal under dash area
the brake light switch on the brake pedal is bad and needs to be replaced. A $10.50 part at parts store.
The most likely cause is a bad brake light switch (if none of the brake lights illuminate) but if its only one of the brake lights, try changing the bulb. Even if they still work as running or turn lights because they have a double filament and may still work partially, but not as brake lights.
Check, or even better replace, the wires.
It turns the rear brake lights on as a safety feature. The brake pedal is pushed in, causing the fluid to move forward in the brake cylinder,activating a brake light switch. Even if the vehicle is off, the lights will still come on.
If you pull the parking brake up the running lights will go off - if not - start the car with the parking brake on and that should work, if you want to drive with the running lights off - you can get away with "slightly" putting the parking brake on (just so the parking brake light goes on in the dash but the brakes itself makes no contact) Otherwise you can remove the relay that controls the daytimes - maybe even a fuse
Set the parking brake, the DRL should go off.
I got it. It was the brake light switch. No answers need now, thanks.
I'm not a mechanic but I believe that is a malfuctioning DRL module
First check to see if you have brake lights, if no brake lights you have a bad shift interlock switch,it is a small black box located behind your brake pedal.It's about $45.00 from the dealership. I keep a spare in my van.
My 2000 Toyota Tundra Truck, the brake lights come on when your not pressing on the brake paddle. Not even even if the car is on.
yes, they do
Brake light switch is stuck or defective.
