The same thing happened to my brother's CRX. It's a small circular piece that goes on the brake pedal assembly where it meets the brake switch. The little piece cracked and fell apart. I simple glued a penny on there, until I could pull one of another CRX. You can also buy it from Honda, it's very inexpensive.
Later.
