Yes, my problem is the red brake tail lights are ON all the time at the rear.

I will find sometime to play with the brake pedal to see if I can fix it.

I now just disconnect the tail light when I am parked.

In case the brake light switch cannot be adjusted and need to be replaced, is the replacement part easy to find? Is it AE86 exclusive parts?

haha yea i feel dumb my apologize for the confusion the funny thing is I had this same issue about 4 weeks ago although mine came from wires being cut under the wheel well. What it could be is when you let go of the brake pedal it isn't hitting the switch button to turn the brake lights off. Sometimes (rarely) the brake switch can get out of adjustment so if it isn't touching the brake pedal when it isn't being pressed there's a way to adjust it you have to get under there and unscrew it and mess with it to get it right. Another thing you can do it completely remove the switch to make sure dirt or nothing built up in there and take the connector off and blow it just to be sure. If all else fails you can find another brake switch for like $10-15 depending where you live but you can find some on ebay, rockauto. com and many places it isn't too hard of a part to find
