You need a wiring diagram for that component. I would chech both the engine and cabin fuse locations and check all fuses. Then check the lighter with a test light

Should be a simple two wire switch in the side of the transmission.

It can be faulty brake light switch causing the problem or its blown brake light bulb.First check and confirm brake light lamp is working and that's not the case.

You need special training to find these kinds of electrical problems, there is no magic bullet to fix it, the shorted component is different almost every time. Seek professional assistance.

check for voltage at the brake light switch

The unit needs to be replaced you can get it on ebay or a junk yard for 30 to 50 bucks.

the check engine light is not caused by any wrong fluid level or dirty air filter or anything else like that, it is caused by well over 100 faults that can occur in the computer controlled electronic engine and emission controls, u will need to go to a Kragen or Autozone parts store and get a free OBD 2 fault code test to get the code that set your light.

unfortunatley not they would not the window motor or the manual crank would be on the wrong side and the rear ones are smaller
