After shutting off the engine and removing the keys the brake lights remain on, and will sometime remain lit when the vehicle is running but the brakes are not applied

Sounds like your brake light switch is sticking-its located under the dash and if you dont do any of your own mechanical work its a good idea to take it somewhere you trust. the part isnt a real expensive one but the labor is going to be the major part of the cost. Most shops charge at least a 1/2 hr of labor @ $80 per hr.

The brake light does not turn on even after replacing with a new one

All vehicle brake lights use a switch to determine if the lights are on or off. This switch, known as a stoplight switch, consists of a plunger-style button that breaks and completes a circuit. When the brake pedal is pressed, the plunger comes outward, completes the circuit and the lights turn on. There are several faults that can make your brake lights stay on. The circuit may go bad and remain completed, or the rubber stopper on the brake pedal stalk could fall off or come apart. If nothing is keeping the plunger pressed in, the circuit remains open.

When I turn my lights on, the brake lights stay on even the third brake light. When I turn the lights off and hit the brake pedal the dash lights come on.

ck the bulbs, have any bulbs been replaced recently, could have the wrong bulb installed in the brake light socket.

1993 Corolla brake light will not go off even when key is removed from iginition

Brake light switch is bad or out of adjustment. It's mounted under the dash and is pressed to the off condition when the brake pedal is at rest. Look under the dash and follow the pedal arm up to the pivot and you will see or feel it. It is active with the ignition off.
