My brake lights are staying on and drained my battery!!!! could it be a fuse??

the fact that you have lights means your fuse is good-lights all the time means your brake switch (located above the brake petal) is hung up or stuck. You need to get down low enough to see it, under the dash and immediately above the brake petal-as you push the petal with your hand, you will see it attached to the brake linkage-for some reason, it is always 'closed' which causes the lights to stay on, even with the key off (safety reasons, this circuit is always hot). you should be able to 'unstick' it by manipulating it, or you can spray a light coating of wd40 on the assembly to sree it up. Worst case, you will need to replace it, the usually run under $20.

Why are my brake lights always on

on the brake pedal under the dash there is a plate that the brake light switch touches to activate the brake lights. The plate has a plastic plug in a hole that will wear out and cause the brake lights to stay on and also one next to it that keeps the cruise control from working if its missing. I used a metal bolt and nut in place of the plastic plug. Hope this helps.

My SRS, ABS, and Brake lights stay on. Sometimes the Brake light will go out but sometimes it will stay on. The SRS and ABS lights are always on. The car seems to be driving okay.

brake light could be a sensor wire or the pads are worn out ,the srs light could be the wiring connections under the front seats ,the connectors need a clean or rubbish under the seat has dislodged them.Abs light coming on could be caused by the low brake pads but its doubtful more like one of the metal toothed rings is loose on the drive shaft ,also could be low on brake fluid if the pads have worn down and the fluid level has dropped

ABS brake light stays on all the time.

Any competent repair shop with a scanner should be able to pull codes from the ABS computer. It is likely a speed sensor or wire.

Abs light on always

Have you checked your brake fluid? It may be low or an indication that the brake pads are worn, causing the light to stay on.
