I've searched everywhere but can't seem to figure this one out...

My brake lights stay on and wont turn off. I checked the "stop" fuse and it's still good. The plastic thing behind the brake pedal broke and I used a nut and bolt but it still didn't work.

I've read this link already but it didn't seem to help.

The only time it turns off is when I disconnect the headlight switch. When the headlight switch is disconnected and I depress the brake, it works.

Any ideas?

try replacing the headlight switch maybe....if its working when it disconnected.......thats where i would start if youre saying you checked all applicable fuses and the brake pedal switch.....just me though

 

S4 or S5?

 

Is the switch for the brake light hydraulic or mechanical?

 

Could you post up a pic of your brake pedal with your Nut & Bolt mod? That might help...
