hey all, it's been bought to my attention that my brake lights are on all the time (regardless of whether I have side lights, dipped beam, main beam or even no lights on)
I had a quick look and if my foots not on the brake there's a little slack I pull it up a little and the lights go off but if I let go they go back on again.
Didn't have much chance to see how I can fix this as it's a bit dark and I don't fancy working in the snow unless I know exactly what I'm doing, any ideas???

Look up behind the glovebox & clip the brake light switch back in to the bracket correctly / adjust the switch.

Yeah just fiddle with it, thats what I did. Pretty easy, but easier if you get someone to tell you when they are turned off or not.

If it continues use some PTFE tape round the thread on the switch to hold it in better
