Icon7 Parking Lights won't turn off

The parking lights won't turn off on a 1995 Honda Civic DX. I have already changed to switch on the column. I don't know what else it could be HELP Please.

Are you SURE it's parking lights, and not BRAKE lights?

There is a little plastic "stopper" plug in the brake pedal assy that tells the brake light switch when you've pressed the brake pedal in, and thus, the brake lights come on when you barely press the brake pedal. Over time this plastic piece rots, and crumbles. Check to see if you have any dark blue, or yellowish plastic bits in your floorboard.

The piece I'm talking about is #23 in this pic:



Part number is 46505-SA5-000 and lists for just over $6.00.

Check this first.

It's not a rare problem. My buddy had to replace the switch in his '93 Civic Si hatch.
