Tail light stays on - 1990 Subaru Lagacy DL

[rpfrehs]

The tail lights of my son's 1990 Subaru Legacy DL stay on when the car is turned off. The fuse looks OK. Would this car also have a switch on the sterring column that turns the light off and on when parking?

Yeah, there is a parking lights switch to turn on just the parking lights, that makes them stay on after the car is off. I don't know if it's on the steering column on a subaru of the early 90's, but it's there somewhere. Maybe on the dash around the steering wheel somewhere.

if it's not the parking lights being left on, then take a look at the brake light switch, it's behind the brake pedal, spring loaded i think, sounds like it may be sticking, they're adjustable too i believe?
