Start with checking the brake light switch. follow the brake pedal up the metal arm until you see a little switch pressed against the metal arm. When the brakes are pressed, the switch button extends and unlocks the shift lever and turns on the brake lights. It is common for a little plastic piece to deteriorate and break away, causing the brake lights to stay on and can damage the shift lock solenoid.
