There is no brake light relay. There is however a brake light switch located above the brake pedal.

No it is not illegal, as long as you have operational tail lights, brake lights, signal lights and a plate light.
I would suspect a ground problem. Saying that, check the brake light switch.
The cruise system shares fuses with the engine and brake lights. If the car runs and the brake lights work, it is not a fuse.
Probably a bad or mis-adjusted brake light switch
Are you sure you need the fuse for the cruise control. My cruise control wasn't working, neither were my brake lights. All 7 bulbs were burnt out. When the brake lights were replaced the cruise control worked.
Look for a blown fuse.
It depends on the vehicle but in general you would have one fuse for the signals and one fuse for the brake lights.
One for brake lights, one for cruise control. If you hit the brakes when using cruise control, that second switch is what tells the control modules that the brake is being depressed.
If the brake lights stay on when the car is not running on most vehicles, including the 1994 Dodge Intrepid, there is probably a short somewhere in the wiring to the brake lights. The first place to investigate this problem would be the wires along the firewall that control the brake lights. Also, check the brake light switch above the brake pedal.
One of two things. Either the brake light switch behind the brake pedal. Or try wiggling or rotating your turn signal stalk in a circle motion. If the brake lights work when the turn signal stalk is wiggled then you need to replace the turn signal stalk.
The brake fluid on a Renault Megane Coupe goes in the brake fluid reservoir. This can be located under the hood in the engine compartment.
