Best Answer

The easiest way to remove an old brake light switch(also called stop light switch) is to break it off. Simply wedge a screwdriver between the switch and the metal bracket and twist. It will pop right out. The switch has 4 ledges that lock the stop-light switch into place. It's very difficult to remove without breaking it.

Why would the brake light stay on on your 1984 Toyota Celica?

The brake light switch is either stuck or out of adjustment. Adjust or replace if necessary. It is located on or near the brake pedal swing arm.Answermore likely, your brake fluid is low.Are you talking about the "brake" light on the dashboard.. or the brake lights on the back of the car?? First, if it's the dashboard light, you need to add brake fluid or possibly change the front brake pads since the fluid runs low when the brake pads run low. Secondly, if you are talking about the rear brake lights, it could be because the little rubber pad that depresses the brakelight switch on the brake pedal when you let your foot off is worn out (has a hole in it) and the plunger on the switch is poking through the pad (which is mounted on the pedal). I fixed this problem once by simply gluing/taping a dime on the pad which made a hard surface for the switch plunger to depress against. Just look under the dash at the brake pedal and you'll see what I mean.

Go to your brake pedal,theres a switch attached to it,it may be stuck or it needs to be replaced. There is a rubber dampener plug that sometimes falls out of the pedal arm that leaves a hole where the pedal would normally depress the brake light switch that is attached to the lower dash.

The brake light switch is located on an aluminum air line junction block. The air line block is directly forward of the steering column on the cab side by the firewall. There is an access panel on the engine side of the firewall that gives you access for replacement.
