If your 1999 Audi A4 only stays running when the gas pedal is pressed, it could indicate a problem with the idle air control valve (IAC), a vacuum leak, or issues with the fuel system. The IAC helps regulate engine idle speed, and if it's malfunctioning, the engine may stall when not given extra throttle. Additionally, a vacuum leak can disrupt the air-fuel mixture, causing similar symptoms. It's advisable to have the vehicle inspected by a mechanic for accurate diagnosis and repair.
because it does
Yes, on a 2003 Nissan Frontier, the third brake light should illuminate when the headlights are turned on, but it will only stay on when the brake pedal is pressed. This behavior is standard for most vehicles, as the third brake light is designed to signal braking rather than simply being a running light. If the light remains on without the brake pedal being engaged, it may indicate a wiring issue or a faulty switch.
My Brake tail Lights Stay on when my car is complete turned off and my lights are off to.
Both are indications of trouble within the braking system. That's what warning lights are for. You will need to take the vehicle to a shop or the dealer to get the problem diagnosed.
Two plastic pads on the brake pedal which press on two switches on a bracket are missing. Meaning the switches never get pressed and the brake lights stay on and run down the battery. See a dealer to put new plastic "buttons" in the pedal.
i had this happen to me it turned out to be a dead battery
It could be a lot of different things. I would check the idle speed unless it's computer controlled. If the idle speed is computer controlled you can't adjust it and it probably isn't the problem anyway.
manualy lift brake pedal to see if they go out. if so check spring at pedal
I don't think it will no.
Under the brake pedal is a brake light switch that when you press the pedal it hits it and makes your lights come on..sometimes when they get weak the pedal depresses them simply from the weight of the pedal and they stay on..Have a friend get inside the truck and pull UP on the brake pedal as you look at the lights..if the brake lights go off when they pull up on it..then it is that switch under the brake pedal
The brake lamps on a 1999 Chevrolet Prizm may stay on due to a faulty brake light switch, which is typically located near the brake pedal. If the switch is stuck or malfunctioning, it can cause the brake lights to remain illuminated even when the pedal is not pressed. Additionally, issues with wiring or a short circuit in the electrical system could also contribute to this problem. It's advisable to inspect the brake light switch and wiring to diagnose and resolve the issue.
because you didn't make the turn yet?
