Behind and above the brake pedal is a pushbutton switch. When the pedal is not being pushed, the steel part of the pedal arm hold it in, essentially shutting off the brake lights. When you push the pedal the switch is released, turning on the lights. It is very easy to see if you look under the dash. I'm not 100% sure if "won't go off" means they don't turn on, or don't turn off. If they won't turn off, it will drain your battery because that circuit is live even when the ignition is off. Possible causes of your problem are: 1. The switch is misaligned. That would make them stay on all the time. If that's the case, you can turn the lights off by pressing the button directly to see if that's the problem. 2. Switch is disconnected or faulty. Easy to tell with a continuity tester. 3. Blown fuse.
either your fuse is blown or the wiring is bad
Check the brake light switch.
Check the fuse, check the bulbs and check the brake light switch, it should be one of those.

I can't turn the yellow brake or parking lights on my 1998 Chevy blazer off and it's draining my battery.Could you please tell me which fuse or switch I'd use to disable the front yellow lights? This is happening even with the car off.
Just a suggestion, check your trailer lights harness for corrosion. They were taking the dash lights down in my chevy.
Yes they indeed have brake lights...
Brake Lights Stay on Unless the Brake Pedal is RaisedThis is usually caused by the brake light switch being out of adjustment in its physical distance to the contact point on the brake pedal arm.
