Hello,

I have the car listed above and the brake lights stay on. The lights just came on yesterday and will not turn off unless I disconnected the battery. I have a huge problem driving due to it looks like I am always stopping. Please help!

Hello,

It sounds like the issue is a shorted-out brake light switch.
The brake light switch is located under the brake pedal lever.
When the pedal gets depressed the brake pedal lever activates the switch and that turns on the brake lights.
It is likely that the switch is shorted in the on position and the light is staying activated all the time.
