Default 94 Break lights hang on.

My 94 vette has developed the problem of the brake lights hanging on from time to time. They will go out and stay out if I take the fuse out and put it back in. Is there a relay located somewheres that could cause this? I would'nt think the swich would cause it because when power is interrupted by removing the fuse they stay out.... Is this a false assumption?

I would check the brake switch adjustment down on the pedal 1st. The switch could also be sticking.

I'm not sure about that. I'd have to look at a FSM for that answer..

NO

It could be out of adjustment as said. But also check for full return movement of the pedal. Make sure the master (or booster) is not slightly hanging it up.

This is your problem - had the same issue on my 92. A quick adjustment of the switch and its been fine for a couple years now.
