While driving a little black box dropped down near my brake peddle ,so I pulled off the road and tucked it back under the dash, it is about 2in X 5in and about 1 in deep,with a rounded circle on it slightly convexed outward and a small hole in the to of the circle like a microphone or something it also has a red and black wire and a orange ,white and black wire set of wires coming out of a connector on the side of it near the middle ,what it it a remote stater box or and alarm box or what?

That switch should be located at the upper section of the brake peddle arm. If you reach up under the dash, running your hand up the arm the brake peddle is attached to... You will feel a small box with a button. THAT'S IT!!! When you push down on the brake peddle, it pushes that little button on the switch which makes the brakes lights come on. Just for kick though, make sure the brake light fuse is still good, before roll around on your floor board.
Good luck and Happy New Year,
Bill

It's easy. There is a little lever that you need to pull down and towards you (when seated) in drivers seat--located under the dash console, just to the right of the emergency brake release lever. The reason its hard to find, is that it is nicely tucked flush with the underside of the dash console, right about where your left knee would rub, if it stuck out, so it makes sense that its tucked away. But like anything, once you know where it is, its a piece of cake to find it.

Vacuum supply starts on the drivers side of the engine. There is a vacuum line going into the brake vacuum assist from the manifold. branching off of that line is a double line that snakes under the intake manifold, behind the valve cover, along side the valve cover on the passenger side headed to the front of the engine. Then it curves to the right side of the engine. One set of hoses from this line goes to a valve control (red and green i think). The other line goes to the vacuum storage ball, it should be black. The vacuum circuit continues out of the ball in another black line that snakes into the firewall. It goes under the heater core black box and disappears under it. Now go into the passenger compartment and drop the glovebox. look to the back right you will see a black and a white vacuum line coming out of the firewall. The black line is your vacuum supply from the engine. It goes up to a little rubber manifold. disconnect the lines coming from the dash switch and check for vacuum on the manifold where the black line is going in. The white line controls the cabin air intake under the glovebox and the thermostat shutoff under the hood. It should only have vacuum when the switch is in a certian position, AC probly. The other three lines coming off the rubber manifold snake behind the dash vent door assemble and come out near the gas peddle. The red one controls the dash vent. apply vacuum to the red hose and see if the vents go to the center dash position/AC. The yellow and blue? ones control the floor vent control near the gas peddle. yellow gives you half floor and half defrost. blue gives you all floor. you can use a small vacuum line to connect the black vacuum supply to each individual line on the manifold and check the function of each vacuum control assembly individually. I hope this helps. On my truck each control unit works fine when i apply vacuum to them individually but when I hook the dash switch up to the rubber manifold it goes to defrost. I tried changing the dash switch and the lines running from the switch to the rubber manifold and the vacuum ball under the hood, nothing works. I suspect I may have leak i just haven't found yet. next step is to get a vacuum gage and start checking the amount of vacuum i am getting at each vacuum line. I'm sure it is supposed to be getting a specific amount of vacuum and will not work if the vacuum drops below a certian level due to a leak in a line somewhere? God bless.

Have you checked your enersha (probably spelled wrong) switch could be trigered off or bad .I think yours islocated under dash on left side of steering colom or some times under seat look for box about 2in by 2 in and about threequarters in thick with a little white button on it. Good luck

There may be a malfunction in the shift interlock sys.
This sys. keeps the shift from being moved from park
unless the brake peddle is depressed. There are 5 fuse's, directly or indirectly related to the interlock system. Fuse #6 15amp in the fuse box under the hood on the left side. The next 4 are in the fuse box
behind the left side of the dash. Fuse #3 15amp/fuse
#18 15amp/fuse #16 20amp and fuse #4 15amp.
Check these first, before you move on to the brake
light switch, under the dash at the brake peddle.
And the shift lock solenoid, under the console left of
the shift lever. Hope this helps.

it may be the switch whitch is located under the dash driver side right above brake peddle arm. when you press the brake peddle the switch button comes out causing the lihts to come on. may just need a little lubricant.

buy a can of silacone oil and spray it up under and behind the brake pedal its most likly the small switch sticking do not spray front of pedal you could cover this with an old rag to prevent overspray this will solve your problem.adrian

20 year old vacuum hoses are done. Replace all you can. The little plastic ones too. They control everything, transmission, computer, fuel, brakes, everything.

sounds like it is a brake light switch located at the brake peddle. test the switch and if it is faulty replace it.

Replace the Brake light control switch located in front of the brake peddle under the dash this also turns the cruise off when braking. While driving put your foot behind the brake peddle and pull back toward you while doing this try your cruise if it works there are three possible causes or a combination of all three. Brake control Switch, Loose or sloppy brake pedal not activating the Brake switch properly or week brake pedal return spring. Good Luck.
