I sounds like the braklight switch is out of position, has failed, or the connector has fallen off. On most cars it is located on a bracket such that when the brake pedal is released it holds the switch open. Get you head down where you can see the brake pedal and how it is fastened and supported. You should see a wire leading to the switch. Could be the brake pedal Stroke sensor. Or maybe a relay. 97's are bad for tailight wire harnesses. Do the taillamps work? Check for power on the brake wire at the taillight connector. If you have power you have a bad connector OR wrong bulbs

What is the name of the small rubber piece that is located under the brake pedal that turns off the tail lights?
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.

Since the break lights turn on when the head lights are activated, the problem is probably in the wiring of your break lights. Someone may have accidentally disconnected the wires of your break lights to your head lights.
