Honda - Accord :: 1998 - Parking Brake Light Comes On Until Jiggling The Brake Handle

The red dash light for my parking brake stays on until I jiggle the brake handle, then it stays off until I re-start the car the next time and then it goes on again. Brake fluid is fine.

Appears to be a faulty switch attached to the handle. How do I fix this? Is it a major job? [it's a 1998 Honda Accord]

Camry :: 1998 - Brake Lights Will Not Come On When Step On Pedal

I recently installed an aftermarket rear spoiler with third light. While searching and testing for a hot brake wire to hook up to, I somehow accidentally shorted out the brake lights. They will not come on when i step on the brake pedal.

I checked the corresponding fuse and it is still intact. The brake light symbol on the dash is "on" so I know the "brake light out" sensor is still working....is there something im missing in getting the brake lights to work again ?

Camry :: 1998 - Brake Pedal And The Dash Lights Goes Dim

My car sat for 3 months and then I tried to start it. When I turn the ignition on, everything looks fine until I hit the brake pedal and the dash lights dim. If I don't press the brake, the dash light dim when I turn the ignition to crank. Either way the starter either clicks or doesn't do anything and I hear a humming sound. My husband said, "The battery has been charged and measures 12.62 volts," but the cigarette lighter voltage measures 12.26, so they are not the same. I have tried jumping it and I still get clicks.

Ford - Explorer :: 1998 - Brake Light Is On / CEL Code P0743 / OD Light Flashes Constantly

My girlfriend just bought a 98 XLT AWD 4.0. does have a few problems.

First, the brake light is on (on the dash). all the lines are good, but the front pads need to be changed. if i take off hard, the brake light goes out for a bit.

Second, had a CEL. P0743, torque converter clutch circuit blah blah. also, the o/d light flashes constantly.

The trans shifts fine, even under WOT. also goes into o/d with no problems, and the button works.

Subaru - Forester - Fuses :: 1998 - Brake Light Not Working

I drive a 98 Subaru Forester and last month the village cop pulled me over for having no brake lights. It turned out to be a blown fuse for the brake lights so I replaced it, problem solved. Well, I got pulled over by the same cop, in the same place tonight. Blown fuse for the brake lights. It seems like a fuse should last more than a few weeks. Is there a problem which would over tax the fuse?

Passat (B5) :: 1998 - Rear Brake Light Bulb Not Working?

Looking for a diagram of how the rear bulb set should be filled on a 98 Passat Estate. ie: with what bulb types go where. etc.

I have big problems with my brake lights not working when the lights are turned on, then when I change bulbs about, they work but the rear lights do not come on etc, or one side does. All bulbs work, but not as they should together. I know I have a right mess of bulbs in the wrong place. The car is just new to me so trying to sort. I also have one empty bulb set on the outer side of each bulb holder unit and so wonder what this is for and if it is used.

Left side rear bulb unit on 98 passat estate...

Caravan/Voyager :: 1998 Dodge V6 - Driver Side Brake Light Not Working

98 dodge caravan 3.3L v6 ..... All lights work including driver's side tail lights. only problem is that when pressing brake pedal, the driver's side brake light does not light up. i changed the bulb and checked the brake light fuse under the hood, but it was fine (as i guessed since the passenger side and middle brake lights work). I took the assembly off and reseated the connector to the tail light assembly, but same issue.

Camry :: ABS And Brake Light On / No Code / Won't Reset On 04

ABS and Brake light coming on and staying on with an '04 Camry 4cyl XLE? I've found posts here of it flashing and wheel speed sensor codes etc, but nothing on it staying on and not re-seting.My code reader is not picking up any codes, I tried jumping pins 4 and 13 on the OBD port to read the code that way, and get no flashes from either ABS or Brake light, and tried the 8 pedal press method to reset the lights with no luck.

Before this, I was starting to get a little noise vibration at around 50mph which seemed to be from right front wheel, so on the wild guess that the bearing had gone bad and damaged the wheel speed sensor or tone ring, I pulled the sensor and it physically looked ok, and tested out at ~ 1kOhm.I checked all the fuses for the ABS system and they all tested ok.

Camry :: 1994 XLE V6 Dash Brake Light On

1994 Camry XLE V-6 239,000 miles and just broke in. Dash brake light on??

I have checked brake fluid taking lid off the canister and level is spot on. Do not see any obvious leaks looking under the car at each wheel. Whatever is the cause it is no longer letting my cruise control to work. The cruise control system must be getting a constant signal telling it the brakes are being applied. Car brakes seem to work ok and I continue to drive car daily. Problem with dash brake light cropped up about 5 days ago after I cleaned the EGR valve.

I previously had a check engine light and code was for the EGR. Don't believe the problems are related but thought I would add this info anyway. BTW the check engine light came on again so cleaning the EGR didn't solve the problem. Will have to have the code read again to see if its the EGR or something else now. Dash is starting to look like a christmas tree with all the pretty colored lights on. What should I check to solve the dash brake light/cruise control issue.
