Your tail lights and brake lights are on a separate electrical circuit mainly because your brake lights need to be activated by the brake switch in your brake petal. Check the voltage regulation circuit in your dash light circuit to see what is faulty.

check cruise control fuse

Yes,

But, there are usually 2 brake switches in the Cruise circuit.

The Brake Pedal switch - is mounted on the pedal and de-activates the Cruise function (as well as operates the brake lights).
The Brake Pressure switch - is mounted to the brake servo/cylinder in the engine bay and acts as a secondary switch to de-activate the cruise function.

Have an assistant check the operation of your brake lights, while you depress the brake pedal. If brake lights do not work, then the Brake Pedal Switch will either need adjusting or the connector to the switch is loose. If all brake lights are functioning, then arrange for someone to check that the brake pedal switch is connecting to the Cruise circuit.

The Brake Pressure Switch in the engine bay - check the connector is pressed in and secure. You should also have the pressure switch resistance checked to ensure it is within factory spec. If not, then replace the brake pressure switch.


Hope this help........

Hi, please check your brake fluid reservoir. Please see my tip at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r6004281-brake_indicator_light_stays . These are genericinstructions. If you get stuck or need specific instructions for your car, please get back to me with model, year and engine info.

electrical short somewhere, or wire cross , also does your front brakes need new pads

well the first thing is to check all your fuses, then i would take a look under the hood for any broken or disconnected vacuum lines,this is what i would check first, hope this is helpful.

If you can unplug the electrical connector to the cruise
control and the fuse still blows you have eliminated one
possible cause.

possible bad speed sensor, get computer codes

Check the brake light switch which is located above the foot pedals on a metal bracket.
