Check the brake light switch at the top of the brake pedal; it might be shorted.

Oh by the way, keep the text in BLACK like everybody else!

 

We Dont always have to conform to color and reason.....

Brake light switch is my guess as well

 

Checked, Replaced, What's Going on?

I checkedand the brake switch was very hot, so I purchased new one for $6 and it's an incredible pain to replace. I'm not sure that I got it in there right and the lights still won't shut off. I just unplug the switch everytime I turn the car off.



:fluffy:

 

Is it the brake Lights or the running lights???? With someone behind the car and you press the peddle do the lights come on(Peddle pressed) and off? IF so the switch is good. If you see a light on then a brighter one comes on then your brake switch is ok start looking for a bad light switch. I am sorry if this sounds very simplistic but your problem with out a good amount of information could lead us to telling you to go in the wrong direction.

 

No More Problems

I got it fixed, I had to replace the brake switch with the little black button on it and the rubber thing that presses in. Thanks for your help. I also found out that my power steering was leaking. $126 to replace the hose. No problems anymore. I can't wait to start on my engine swap, but first I'll be putting coilovers, wheels, tires, brakes, and some other stuff for safety. My father won't let me swap engine until I upgrade brakes and suspension first.

thats smart, most people over look these components when making high horsepower cars. i wish most people would upgrade these first, you can't expect stock brakes to stop 600HP.

 

Gotta have suspension to hold the power. And the brakes to hold that power back...Your father is a smart man.

 

HKS Hipermax

I just got a good job and I will be ordering the HKS Hipermax Coilovers sometime before summer.

 

yo you got it easy, i bought my 240sx with a shot motor, alternator and severly cracked frame i dropped over 1800 into her before i could crank the engine and go around the block. and yea ur old man is smart, ive seen bad accedents from morons doing a sr20 but forgetting about good ceramic brakes to stop at the lights.

 

i put my sr in 2 oh hold on 2007 oh dats 3 years ago and im still alive. "ceramic brakes, where?". ceramic brakes have to get up to temperature to start working at there full potential. all you need are some semi metalics.

 

yea but your probly a good driver.... ever see a 16 yr old kid that just learning how to drive with a sr20 at his finger tips... only saying this cause i was in the same boat with an integra with a vtec swap on my 16th... only lasted me 3 months before a nice t-bone incedent with a lincoln navigator... im still stickin to my story that the navigator fell from the sky infront of me

 

HKS coilovers? at 16? Someone is selling illegal drugs or something to afford that shiz.

 

Connections boys and girls... connections. My father has alot of sponsers for his car. Porsche 911, rebuild engine, twin turbo 960hp nothing left untouched. He'll be showing his car of and probably some of his new gadgets at HIN in FL and then in ATL in Nopi coming up. It's bright yellow convertible.
