Want this question answered?
There is a piece behind the brake pedal that brakes, it is round and blue, but I do not know what the piece is called.
Usually that would be caused by a faulty brake light switch connected TO the brake pedal. If the brakes work the pedal is probably ok.
Under the brake pedal is a brake light switch that when you press the pedal it hits it and makes your lights come on..sometimes when they get weak the pedal depresses them simply from the weight of the pedal and they stay on..Have a friend get inside the truck and pull UP on the brake pedal as you look at the lights..if the brake lights go off when they pull up on it..then it is that switch under the brake pedal
Check the switch at the brake pedal .
You need to adjust your brake light switch. It should be located on the brake pedal. Unplug the switch and loosen the nuts to adjust the button closer to the brake pedal.
Check the switch at the brake pedal, it is what makes the brakes come on, it may be malfunctioning.
Probably your emergency brake pedal. Try lifting up on your e brake pedal and see if id goes out.
Out of adjustment. Adjust the mounting of the switch so the brakes lights are off until you press the brake pedal.
Check the brake light fuse first. Then check for a bad brake light switch at the brake pedal.
If you just barely touch the brake pedal the brake lights will come on but the brakes will for all intent and purpose not be applied.
Possible bad switch on the brake pedal? When you push on the brake pedal, it activates a switch, that switch turns on your brake lights. If the bulbs and fuses are ok, check the switch with an ohmeter.
The part of the car that turns on the brake lights when you apply pressure to the brake pedal is called the brake switch. Releasing pressure from the pedal causes the brake switch to break its electrical contact, turning off the lights.
