Question: Brake lights only work when break is bearly tapped...

Question

Visitor, Santa Fe, NM, May 21, 2011, 00:18

All other lights work, including turn signals, emergency lights etc.
How ever, when I slightly press on my brake peddle, the breaks come on, yet if you press all the way down, they wont turn on, I need help fixing this because I can't afford take it to a dealership.

Oh, if this helps, my car is automatic.

    You are looking at a likely issue with your brake light switch and / or your brake light switch wiring connector. I would recommend inspecting for sure; but be ready to replace both.
