Brake lights wont turn off

[WyoRedNek]

06 tahoe. Pulled both brake light fuses, both stayed on. With engine off. Bad brake pedal switch? Brake lights wont turn off, so unplugged battery so it won't pull power.

Probably the brake switch under the dash at the brake pedal

Not sure which "brake" fuses you're pulling, but did you pull the "VEH STOP" fuse from the instrument panel fuse block?

The brake pedal switch is a common failure on these types, but first thing, verify up travel of pedal is enough to release switch plunger.

Can unplug the brake light/stop light switch to check.

Lights stay on when I pull plug on new switch. Lights stay on when I pull brake light relay

Lights stay on with plug unplugged, new switch. And still stay on with engine power off

Even pulling the park lp and stop lp relays, fuses....the lights still stay on

Wow anyone have a wiring diagram for brake lights

 

[OR VietVet]

Yea, there must be a wire crossed or rubbed thru somewhere that is supplying the power in a constant basis. You are sure it is brake lights and not tail lights, correct?
