Default HELP..push brake pedal, every running light and interior light comes on?

94 civic ex, automatic. if you turn the lights on, only get headlights.... but if you touch the brakes... corner lights light up, dash lights light up, tail lights light up.

if the car is on, same thing except the clock in the dash dims like the light were just turned on. the only way any of these lights come on period is by pressing the brake pedal?

does it even w/o having the key in the car... looked under the dash. all wires seem to be wrapped in origonal harness... and no wires being touched when pressing brake pedal?

any guesses? somehow the brake light sensor against the pedal gone hey-wire?

Did you check your fuse box? It's possible that somethign blew and the circuit changed. That's a wierd problem, dude. Good luck .

Did you replace the radio recently? There is a wire for the dimmer that people never hook up and can short out and cause odd results

This reminds me of hooking up the horn to the brake lights or VTEC solenoid. I gotta do that. Whatever it is, let us know because this is really funny.

wtf? mod? this sint my car. i drive a turbo gsr... this is a car my girlfirends parents bought for her grandmother. then this crap started happening so they bought another car. tring to figure it out/fix it to sell it.

as far as i know nothing has been changed. the stock radio was taken out and replaced with another stock radio from a 95 ex (didnt have the code for the origonal 94 ex radio, tossed in spare 95) and there is no antenna in the hole in the roof? **** was broken off when they bought it.

i have pulled each and every fuse by hand and checked, also checked all grounds under the hood.

and made sure no wires are being touched/moved when the brake pedal is moved. anybody else?
