Recommend checking the operation of the switch that is actuated by the brake pedal itself. This switch is either mounted to the brake pedal or mounted under the dash and actuated by the movement of the pedal
Have you check all of the light bulbs? If yes, then check the ground next and then check the fuses. Lastly, if all of those check out, it is most likely the brake switch behind the brake pedal.
Brake lights and turn signals are on a separate circuit from the tail lights. Tail lights are on the same circuit with the dashboard lights. If the dashboard lights aren't working either, check the fuse. If they ARE working, check the headlight switch.
check the brake light relay under the hood
First check the fuse, or you may have a burnt out bulb
Check the brake switch located on your brake pedal shaft. May have to be replaced.
Sounds like a brake problem. Need to pull wheels and check the brakes.
Check the bulbs- double filamented smaller for stop lights Check fuses Check the operation and adjustment of the stop light switch
it could be the brake light switch that usually contacts the break pedal when you depress the brake pedal. check that out first.
check your fuses, likely culprit
The brake lights and the tail lights are separate circuits. Check the brake light fuse, then check the brake light bulbs, then check the brake light switch.
The sensor states "check brake lights and brake linings" is this something I can do or must it go to the shop?
check the fuse, brake lights have their own, & check the brake switch at the top of the brake pedal
