To replace the brake light switch on a 1995 Geo Metro, first disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety. Locate the brake light switch, which is typically mounted above the brake pedal arm. Remove the electrical connector from the switch, then unfasten the switch from its mounting bracket. Install the new switch by reversing the removal process, reconnect the electrical connector, and reattach the battery terminal.
Depends on what the problem is. It is either, defective bulbs, brake light switch, blown fuse, or wiring problem. Check the fuse first, then if all lights including the 3rd light are not working, suspect a defective or out of adjustment brake light switch. The switch is located somewhere on the brake pedal arm, or may be a pressure switch on the master cylinder.
The brake light switch would be located under the dash right above the brake pedal. It could be mounted to the pedal arm itself, or attached to the dash. You would unplug the switch, and using just a continuity meter, stick the probes inside each connector of the switch, and press down on the brake pedal. If the meter buzzes, or shows 0 ohms then the switch is good.
I just had the same problem with my 1998 It was the brake light switch. It connects into the neutral safety switch on top of the brake pedal. The part was 14 dollars at autozone. I would check all the fuses first though sometimes that is the simplest.

There isn't a switch to reset the light. You 'reset' the light by fixing the problem which is causing the light.
Most auto parts stores have wiring diagrams for a 97 Geo Metro. This includes wiring diagrams for the brake light, head lights, and much more.

To remove the light switch in a Geo Metro, first disconnect the negative battery cable to ensure safety. Then, gently pry off the switch cover using a flathead screwdriver. Once exposed, carefully disconnect the wiring harness from the back of the switch and unscrew any mounting screws if applicable. Finally, pull the switch out of the dashboard or panel.
Check that your hand brake is all the way down. If your hand brake switch is tripped, the brake lihgt should come on, and the automatic running lights won't.
To replace the heater switch in the dash of a 2000 Metro, first disconnect the car battery to ensure safety. Remove the dash panel covering the switch by unscrewing any screws and gently prying it off. Disconnect the wiring harness from the back of the old heater switch and remove it from the dashboard. Install the new switch by connecting the wiring harness and reassembling the dash panel, then reconnect the battery.
Check your fuses first. If not a blown fuse, make sure the bulbs are good and if so, it's got to be the brakelight switch. You know, down on the brake pedal.
