if the clicking noise happens when turning the wheels while driving, the most likely problem is the output axle shaft ( drive axle ) when the boots rips you loose grease and they start to grind and clicking and brake away. ( recommended to bring to an auto repair shop ) roughly price on drive axles are $125 for the part and 1.5 hours labor.Now, if those noises could be duplicated without driving ( just moving the steering wheel side to side ) it could be a bad ball joint or pitman arm. I really don't think that the brake light is related. I would go straight to your mechanic and avoid all pot holes and drive slowly. Good luck.

Turn the radio off and then disconnect the battery for 30 seconds. Make sure the radio is off or your going to be prompted to enter a radio code to activate it again. Once the battery is reconnected the radio can be turned on again and then try to eject the CD. Good luck and this should work.
