Hi Tom:
If you open the hood (bonnet) and look at the brake master cylinder there should be an electrical connection. The thing on the cylinder that the wires connect to will be the switch.
I'd try unpluging it and then use a continuity meter to try to check the switch function.
DEFINITELY replace the switch if it is not functioning correctly.
It would be DANGEROUS to simply dis-connect it and then drive without brake lights.

Break lights stay on when car if off

I had this same problem. I turned off my car and the brake lights stayed on. I looked under the dash and found that the brake pedal, when not pressed, barely touched the brake light switch, which controls whether the brake lights are on or off. Initially though I just wedge a thin piece of adhesive foam between the pedal and switch, which worked fine for several months until I found the time to properly fix it. My brake light switch was adjustable so i eventually adjusted the nuts on each side of the brake switch holding it to the pedal bracket so that the brake pedal pushed in the white brake light switch when released. Hope this helps!

After i change thebrake switch will my fan blower for my heater and ac start working agian

No it won't.The brake switch is for brake light,interlock shift solenoids,transmission TCC controls,and stoping the vehicle, You fan blower has a completely different power supply that is independant from the brake electrical system, For you fan blower to operate its either the fan resistor blower or the fans control switch to the fuse

My car is off but my brake lights are still on how can I shut it off??

remove fuse for brake lights, lights staying on is caused by bad brake light switch, which is under the steering column on the brake pedal, remove switch replace with new switch, re-install fuse for brake lights

I cannot get the car out of park

see if thebrake lights work, the park is locked if the brake pedal is not pushed, so a defective brake light switch will cause your problem, let me know what you have.

Brake Lights

Brake light not turning off it is either a contact or the brake light switch that need replacement. In your case , if brake lights go off playing with the pedal , that means that the switch must be replaced. The brake light switch it is usually located behind the pedal and gets activated when you push the brake pedal.
