Pad insulators, anti rattle clips, or calipers are loose. The squeal you hear is the result of vibration of the brake pads.

How to stop brakes from squeaking when the brake pedal down is presse down on a 1999 Alero?
Brake squeek or "Brake Squeel" is common in many vehicles. There are two reason for this annoying noise. One your brakes are worn out and are cutting into your rotors and drums or it is brake pad vibration. If it is the first then you need to have a brake job done. If it is the second then you can get a "Brake Squeel Kit" from just about any automotive store. These kits contain a blue lubricant as well as backing tape that fits on the back of your brake pads. The idea of this is to stop the vibration of the brake pads which could be causing your brake squeel. One last note as well, check and see if you have any tiny particles of gravel caught between your pads and rotors as this will also contribute to brake squeel as well. Good luck!!
What is the loud squeel every time you hit the brakes?
Brakes are designed in such a way as to give off a loud squeel when they are coming to the end of their useful life. If your brakes are squeeling loudly and have been for a while it is a good idea to make plans to look at them.

Where is the tail light fuse located on a 1995 ford windstar?
If the brake lights have good bulbs in them then your brake light switch has probably gone out. This is located at the brake pedal usually toward the rear of the hinge part at the top of the pedal. If you check this this is the most common reason for brake light failure. There is no one fuse that is dedicated to just the rear lights. There would be several more things not working. I hope this helps some.

Very common, as long as the brake pedal comes back up after the engine is started its good. It takes a second for the brake booster to build up pressure.

When we bleed the brakes with the car turned off turned off the brakes seem good As soon as you start the car and the power assist kicks in the brake pedal goes right to the floor Help?
Brake Pedal Goes to the Floor After BleedingAlthough there could be more than one reason, I suspect that even though you may have bled the brake system, AND the brake fluid reservoir is full, your brake bleeding was not successful, and you STILL HAVE AIR IN THE BRAKE LINES, or in the wheel brake slave cylinders.
