because your have a short in the circuit or wiring. check your ground wire first. are they corroded. or hanging loose. There is a short (wires touching metal) in the wiring somewhere between the brakelightswitch (above the brake pedel) and the brake lights. Could also be a bad brakelight switch (shorting out).

Where is the brake light switch in a 1988 740 Volvo?
Look under the dash on the driver's side, half way down the brake pedal. When you depress the brake pedal, the pedal moves away from this switch, which allows the brake light pedal circuit to complete, and your brake lights come on. This brake light switch is always hot/on, as required by federal law, so that even with no key in the ignition, if you hit your brake pedal, the brake lights will come on.
