Best Answer

A brake light switch is a mechanical electric switch that is set in the off position (open circute) and located in front of the brake pedal. When you step on the pedal and its position changes the switch complete's its circute sending power to the brake light. The brake light switch is protected by a fuse or circute breaker and has no other connection with the operation of the brakes.
