What should I do when my 2000 Cirrus brake lights work when the headlights are off?
ummm... your brake lights should ALWAYS work whether your headlights are on or not, that's how people behind you know you are stopping.
Why do brakelights go off on when the head lights are switched on?
Brake lights should NOT be effected by the headlights. Brake light function is completely independent of the headlights. Assuming you are not refering to the tail lights, or marker lights, which are supposed to come when the head lights are turned on. Not having brake lights when the head lights are on is a big safety problem and should be corrected.
How do you turn off headlights in a 1998 Oldsmobile silhouette when it is running?
You can only turn off the headlights by applying the emergency brake. When the emergency brake is on, the headlights will not light. Otherwise the best of my expererience is that they are on all the time. If you have remote start, put the emergency brake on before you leave the vehicle and when you remote start it, the headlights will not be on, but the driving lights (if switch is on) will be on as well as the parking lights.
What would cause your brake lights to not come on with the headlights on If the headlights are off the brake lights are fine?
Possible ground issue at the taillights.
Why would the brake lights on a 1998 318ti work normally without the headlights but stay on constantly with the headlights?

Why do your brake lights come on when your headlights are on?
they are not brake lights they are fog lights and they turn on because it is for the car behind to see you
Why does your parking lights and brake lights work and not your headlights and you replaced the switch and still no headlights?
Check the fuse for the headlights. It is probably open.
What would cause the brake lights to stay on when the headlights are on?
You should consult the owner's manual, as this appears to be a fuse/electrical issue. You might also consider removing your foot from the brake pedal when driving at night. Happy braking!
If my visability is ever reduced while driving what should i use?
Slow down and turn your low beam headlights on. Turn on signal lights in advance and brake early as you approach a stop.
How do you turn off the headlights on a 2002 Chevrolet Express van while the motor is running?
one click of the parking brake should turn off the lights, don't recomend driving though
Why do the brake lights on a 2000 4Runner barely come on when the headlights are turned on?
The brake lights should not come one until you step on the brakes. The tail lights should come on when the headlights are on. If they're weak, maybe there's dirt in/on the lenses or maybe the bulb is old and clouded. Change the bulbs and see if that improves things.
What is the problem if I have headlights and brake lights but no running lights?
Fuse for parking lights probably blown.
