So the brake light on my dash has been on for some time now. Not the one that indicates a problem with the actual brakes, but the one that indicates a problem with the brake lights. I simply assumed that one of my brake lights was out and let it go...(been busy, got married/honeymoon).
Anyways, yesterday evening, I go out and find all three brake lights on (rear windshield and the left/right brake lights). I try stomping on the brake pedal thinking its stuck or something...nope. I turn the car on and it BARELY starts like the batter is almost dead. I go to the grocery store and back and the whole time the lights were on. It had been a long day so I just disconnected the battery and went to bed.
Today I'm going to troubleshoot/fix the issue. My first place after here is to check the fuse box. But then I had a dream where it crossed my mind that maybe the brake lights all go on once BOTH tail lights have burnt out...no idea. A more likely cause is faulty old wiring on a 22 yr old honda. sheesh.
Anyways...I was hoping someone here might have some ideas about what to do.
Thanks!
