Re: Help - Break lights stay on
did you recently change the bulbs back there, if you did you prolly just turned the bulbs upside down, if not you got a wire crossed.

Re: Help - Break lights stay on
those bulbs wont go in backwards, look on the petal and see if the little plastic numb came off that activates the switch... although if it did it should stay on all the time, but you never know.

Re: Help - Break lights stay on
yeah you could use anything you can get to fit on it and stay, even like a piece of plastic and some duct tape.

Re: Help - Break lights stay on
not sure how much they are, you could get one at a junk yard for pretty much nothing, it just snaps in a hole I believe.

Re: Help - Break lights stay on
use a one of the plastic clips that hold your wheel well splash guards in. they are like a clip with a plastic screw in the middle of it. they work perfectly, and they got my friend out of a jam once. he has a 95 civic, which has two of those sensors on the clutch pedal. its for neutral safety. well his both must have rotted out, and fell off while he was driving. then when he got offa work, he couldnt start it. when i got there, i checked all kinda stuff, and finally saw the plastic on the floormat. so i got two clips off of his splashguards in the wheel well, and used them. hes still driving today with them, and they are a lot stronger than the stock clips
