Check the little rubber bumper that the switch pushes on...it's
probably worn away causing the lights to stay on.

Similar problem with supra, please help!

I am having the same problem on my 87 supra, and I dont know what to do. The rear and brake lights dont shut off, no matter what I do. Please tell me what to do to fix it. I understand the problem was Identified, but I dont understand what you are talking about. It would help greatly if you told me how to fix this problem quickly beofre the battery burns out.
Thanks Much,
Greg

on your brake pedal, toward the top, the should be a rubber stopper there. it sounds like yours broke or wore out, so go buy one from a parts shop like napa or something and just put the replace the stopper. if you need help, just ask the guys/girls working there. it's not hard to fix.

Re: Brake Lights Dont Turn Off!!

i used a simpler solution than going to the store. go to your garage/tool area. get a simple plastic device made for screws (the one that fills a hole in brick/cement). sorry i don't know the actual name for it. it worked perfectly for me. that IS a pretty scary problem when you first encounter it. hope this helps.
