Author Topic: need help with brake switch lowriderryda ¯ Member # 7397 posted                              i have a 1994 mustang v6 auto. i think that my brake switch is bad because the brake light do not come on and i cant pull the car out of drive. i checked the fuses and they are good. so does this mean the brake switch is bad? im able to get it out of park if i play with the ignition turning it half way on. if its the brake switch is it hard to replace?
