Re: Need Help

maybe a bad relay, it always has power going to it, well, at least the brake pedal switch has power to it. Are your brake lights on? Try replacing the relay and see if that fixes it, if not, you might have some wiring thats getting power from another wire.

Re: Need Help

Check your brake switch that it is adjusted properly, if it isn't, the switch will think the brake pedal is always pushed in. Check that and we can go from there.
