Air trapped in the system. Bleed the brakes.
The brake light switch is behind the brake pedal.
Remove the right, lower panel down by the brake pedal by carefully pulling out on the rear. Both the dip stick and the filler tube should be visible.
Check rear bulbs, rear brake bulb fuse, and check the swith on the brake pedal.
Small pedal on the left of the brake pedal - activates the rear brake to hold vehicle
There is an electronic relay switch which turns on the rear brake lights-It's located behind the brake pedal- It clicks when you push the pedal down, making contact.

i was wondering how to change rear brake drums for 1999 Chevy venture
And why in the world would you want to do that, as the rear brakes which are operated by the parking brake are already activated by the brake pedal. Do not even think of doing this.
Brake pedal will be soft if the front pads are seized in the slides..and/or your rear brakes are dirty and out of adjustment. Pull up the park brake slowly and count the clicks it goes up More than 5 clicks...needs rear brake adjustment
To change the rear brakes on a 1999 Daewoo Nubira, start by safely lifting the vehicle and removing the rear wheels. Remove the brake caliper by unbolting it, then slide it off the brake rotor. Replace the old brake pads with new ones, ensuring they are properly seated, and then reassemble the caliper over the new pads. Finally, reattach the wheel, lower the vehicle, and pump the brake pedal to ensure proper brake function before driving.
It can wear out your rear brakes prematurely if you do it for a long distance because the emergency brake pedal/handle just applies constant pressure on the rear brakes as if you were putting your foot on the brake pedal. It also kills your gas mileage.
