Brake lights suddenly came on and will not turn off. Truck had not been driven in several days. The switch can be manually depressed and lights will turn off.
Not sure on your frontier, but lots of brake light switches are mounted
just above the brake pedal, with a button, when you step on the brake, the brake arm hits the button & the lights go on, when released the button should retract and ligts go out, these switches are adjustable, usually you need to unplug the connector , then screw the switch in or out til the brake pedal arm isn't pushing on the button. don't go too far cause then the pedal won't hit the switch to turn them on.
What has happened is the switch on the brake peddle has moved. Reach under the dash and locate the switch and adjust it so the peddle is depressing the button.

Yes. Because the switch use a individual wire to the 3rd light.
To separete from the rear. because the rear lights, use the same bulb to signal and brake light.

there are two switches on altimas one brake switch is to cancel the cruise control if you have it on your vehicle, and the other is to control shift interlock (shifter when you press on brake pedal to relase) and the lights. this switch has more than two wires to it and they are very easy to replace but study them a bit before attempting, it just takes some twisting.
you might have jumped the wrong switch. it is common for the brake switches to go out, so my advice is to replace it. don't forget to check power supply to circuit (fuses) and older models tend to short out at the bulbs because the socket puts pressure on the lead contacts on bulb and brings them together
causing a short circuit that you forever will try to find in the wiring

The hole in the pedal arm is for the cruise control. There is a plastic plug that needs to be in place to turn off the brake lights. They should be available at any dealer - there is also one for the clutch pedal arm in manual trans. These are required for the cruise as well as to turn off the brake lights. I bet that several will now be able to have their cruise back.

look up above your brake pedal and you should see the switch. Depending on the car, the switch either pops out, or just needs a screw to be removed
