I have a 93 Si hatchback and my brake lights are constantly on. I had to take the fuse out in order for them to turn off. I tried changing the fuse and it still happens, it's just always on. Does anyone know what might be causing this?

When I say my brake lights, I'm talking about the rear brake lights that come on when you press on the brake pedal, not the one in the dash.

Please advise.

I checked the brake fluid level and it's fine, it isn't low.

 

There might be something wrong with the brake light switch on the pedal.

ive also seen this on a lot of brand new "luxury" type cars which is odd to me.

check to make sure the switch is closing all the way and also make sure its not loose in its mount. ive seen them get loose before

 

that happen to my hatch....

In my case, the little plastic that pushes the brake light switch on the pedal broke so the button wasnt being pushed... Go to Honda buy the little plastic thing and push it in the lil hole and viola, brake lights are off... ill see if i can find a pic on majestic to show u so u can check if its that.,..

 

it is #23... take a look and see if that is missing... if not maybe ur switch went bad or something...
