Tail lights always on

[aakwam]

I have a 94 teg and i changed the tail light relay checked all the fuses and the lights still stay on and when i press the brake they dont do anything. Does anyone have an idea on what the issue could be and if this help the horn and interior dome light doesnt work either dont know if it could be connected. Any help would be appericated

I'm not to sure but most cars have a switch under the brake pedal. I would check that see if it's stuck. If you got power going to the brake pedal switch even when the brake pedal isn't pushed down then the switch is stuck or bad. Again I'm not sure but that's where I would check next if the fuses are all still good.

it def was the brake switch by the pedal i guess something is suppose to keep it depress when not pressing the brakes and the when you hit the brakes it releases out so i threw a bolt and lock nut in and it solved the problem thanks for the info

There's a little rubber nipple looking thing, if you seen it on the floor after driving and said "wtf is that?" then just threw it away without worries, that's what it was lol.


Same thing happened to me when I came home from work one night, next day my battery was dead. I paid a tire shop 5 bucks to hook something in there for me, so good call on what you did. As long as it works, you'll be fine. Sorry for the late answer.

Mine happened on my birthday, went for a walk on the beach with my girlfriend and came back to the car not starting. There was a bunch of yellowish plastic crumbs on the floor and I realized what it was so I bought two. Not a month later the brake one did the same and I had the spare in the center console. Thanksfully that first night my girlfriend has small hands because she had to reach up and push the button to get the car to start lol. Glad you found out what it was.
