2006 Dodge Stratus - Brake light comes on during a right turn.

Brake light switch usually pushes into bracket until the switch plunger hits the back of the brake pedal and is fully depressed, then turn the switch to lock it in place. Next, connect the wiring plug. The point is, it must be depressed when the brake pedal is up, as it turns on the lights as you push the pedal down and its plunger is released.

your brake fluid may be low, refill it and have the brakes checked, usually if the light comes on, the brakes are worn.

my guess is the ground to the rear lights is bad and when you hit the brakes the voltage loops back into the light circuit and overloads it

the most common reason for the brake light to come on is that it is low on brake fluid. top off the brake fluid even if it is not completely empty, it may be low enough to turn the light on.

A possibly is the multifunction switch if not the brake light switch/circuit

The fluid may be low, thats why it goes on when turning right, the squeak may be the brakes worn out and needing replacement.

Put key fob in. do no hit brake. press start. the bell dings. hold the odometer reset knob found on the left of the speedo. bell dings again. scroll through items/pages with the buttons on the turn signal cruise control signal lever . Select oil hold odometer knob again. It will ask you if you want to reset? you press odometer knob again. Done. Your welcome.

the stratus' are well known for the brakelight switch on the brake pedal going out frequently!!
so go to nearest parts house and buy a brakelight switch, that will most likely fix your problem!!

It is a bulb. It's a special two way bulb that performs both functions.

the stratus is know for clasped rear brake hoses .This stops the flow off brake fluid. try opening the brake lines at the master cylinder that go to the rear.pump up brakes first! if you got fluid than check the brake line if this is rear disc brakes on the line at the rear will be a built in proportioning valve.if drum loosen rubber hose line before the rubber part to see if you have fluid. If you do replace the brake hose! On you 74 challenger by the way i love dodge! any way on the valve there is a small button on the front of the proportioning valve that pops out it needs to be tap in lightly. also hit the brake peddel kind of hard a couple off times if that doesn't work. thanks for your question


p.s that hex bar on the is a junction not a proportioning valve .
