SOURCE: Abs and parking brake lights come on and stay on

There is probably a problem with you anti lock brake system. Have it checked at your local dealership. Brakes are a problem that should never be let go.

SOURCE: 1993 Cavalier ABS light and parking brake light both stay on

The fuse is probably blown or the sensor at the front wheel got hit by a hard ball of snow, the ABS sensor is at the front wheels and you have to get under the car to get a look at it.

SOURCE: brake lights staying on

There is a shift interlock mechanism that operates off your brake pedal. It sends a signal for your brake lights and shift interlock solenoid when you put your brake on. Since you are having problems with both the brake lights and the shifting out of park I would go there first. It is easy to find, Follow your brake peddle up to its pivot point. Just below the pivot point you will see a landing and there will be one or two switches. A new switch is set out to make the adjustment when you install automatically. If you are handy, you can remove your old one, pull it out to max position and reinstall it. Let it self adjust. If it just got out of adjustment this will usually take care of the problem. You cold also have a weak solenoid in you shift interlock system. But that would not cause the brake light problem. Hope this helps.

1991 Buick Park Avenue. Interior/door lights stay on when not running and causes battery to go dead. Where are the switches located? I suspect a door jam type switch is faulty on one or more doors.

to solve this it takes only 2 things, a meter and schematic of the dome lap circuit on any car.
yours is easy new cars this runs off BCM computer magic.
31year old, most switches that old fail. be it 4 doors or dome lamp switches up high. can all fail.
called door jamb switches, bad / if are
each dome lamp is turned off. at the park switch or at the dome.

the cures, I have no users guide, (rare) so answer is generic
1: turn off dome ,via. steering stalk park switch some have dome setting
1b:: the dome lamps them self have a switch, of some kind stated in the mission manual
2: remove all these 1 by one, or first open all 4 doors
and cycle the switch see of dome goes off.



on most cars door closed is switch open
if true we remove the switch and pull the plug and dome goes off
if yes the switch was bad.

1997 Camry, put in new battery, parking /rear lights would not turn off. Tried changing fuses using map in manual, now the parking lights go off but dome light/instrument panel stays on.

You've probably made a mistake in the fuse box
Go back to it in the daylight (with a torch too, if necasseary) & check through the fusebox again.
The parking lights are usually set by turning the light switch the opposite way to normal.f the light.?
Check that you haven't done that by accident AS WELL as now having a new problem with the fuse box.?

The interior lights and running board lights stay

Check your DOME light switch. There are 3 positions. Completely OFF even with doors open, ON with doors shut so you can read while parked, NORMAL for the lights to come on only when the doors are open.

Your headlight switch will also turn everything ON inside when it is turned completely to one side. Just twist this switch a little towards center if this is on.

2006 Saturn, dome light turns itself on when it's parked.

The car might be "thinking" that one of the doors is ajar,
Check the spring switches in all the door frames to make sure that they are hooked properly, and doing their job. One way to do it is ( if the dome happens to be off) to close and open each door several times, to see if the bad switch stays open and turns the light on, even with the door closed

I have a 1994 Buick Park Avenue and the courtesy lights stay on even after the delay. How do I fix this problem?

It may be a door lamp switch or the little rubber on the end of one came off. Check the dome light switch on the dash and make sure it's off. It also could be the RAP relay.

Security light stays on and occasionly something runs down battery overnight .since i lost my keys with remote opener these problems have come up. this car is a 1994 buick park ave ultra.

One of the door pin switches is faulty, Interior light must be staying on and draining the battery. If you don't see the dome light staying on possibly the trunk switch is bad.
