    If anyone might have a clue why my brake light is stuck on.... Is there a relay switch on it that could be stuck? Changing the bulb did not work of course.. just wondering if someone might have encountered the same problem.

    Did you adjust your rear brake pedal recently? There's an adjuster there for the light switch, to get it to come on at the right point.
