1996 Error Code p0719
My 1996 Automatic has the check engine light on and when I check the codes I get p0719 "Brake Switch B Circuit Low".
The normal symptoms of this code appear to be the brake lights not working and/or the car stalling, but the brake lights work fine and the car has not stalled. Any one have any idea what this could be? Is it a common problem?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

My favorite site for codes. Gives a general idea of the logic behind the code:
https://www.obd-codes.com/p0719
Could be a few things from fuses to wiring:
Defective brake switch
Misadjusted brake switch
Shorted or open wiring and/or connectors in the brake switch circuit designated as B
Blown fuse or burnt fusible link
Faulty PCM
PCM programming error
If it drives fine I would assume that its not a PCM issue but most likely something with the brake switch itself, the connector, or the wiring in the harness.
