On the brake pedal there is a switch, First try just pulling up on the pedal, If that doesn't work replace the switch. It called "stop light switch"!

If you unplugged the switch and the brake lights are still on try pulling the fuse. It seems you have a short. Unplugging the switch will determine that for shure. Do the rest of your lights work correctly?
