Most likely problem is the brake light switch is broken or out of adjustment. The switch is located under the dash on the arm lever of the brake pedal. When the pedal is at rest, the arm presses the switch in and turns off the lights. If the switch gets loose, broken, or out of adjustment, it may not close and allow the lights to stay on constantly.

98 Ford Explorer Brake lights not working,top brake light does

I had a similar problem like this with my 98 explorer once; neither brake lights worked and the top one stayed on very dimly at all times. It turns out both of my brake lights went bad at exactly the same time, which for some reason made the top light stay on. Felt like an idiot, but all I needed to do was change the bulbs.

Tail Lights stay on all the time.

under the dashboard on the drivers side. look at the brake pedal lever. there should be a switch attached. push switch in and twist to remove. then pull the button as far out as it will go. while holding brake pedal down reinstall switch. then pull pedal up to top. this will reset the brake light switch. if they stay on still, then just replace the brake light switch.
