While driving, or parked, my brake lights seem to always be on. When I pull the brake pedal up, the brake lights would then go off. After doing this for about 3 weeks, it is getting harder to keep them off. After pulling up on the pedal and making sure the brake lights are off, I will leave the car. When I come back they are on.
I been told that it is probably the brake light switch. I have gone under the dash to check it out. Found the switch. When I press in the plunger, the lights DO go off. It seems like a "distance" issue. Either the plunger needs to be moved forward, closer to the brake arm, OR the brake arm needs to be adjusted back to the plunger. Is there a way to adjust either of these? If so, which one should I adjust and HOW? Or do I need a new brake light switch? If I install a new one, will I have the same "distance" issue?
Thanks in advance for your help.
