Arrow Stuck in Park & No Brake Lights

97 Expy

Stuck in Park, No Brake lights.

Checked fuses.
Brake lights flicker when the brake pedal is tapped lightly so the bulbs are good.

Replaced the brake light switch. This fixed the problem of cruise control not disengaging with brake... but no brake lights, and still stuck in park.

Any other experiences with this? Thanks

Try fiddling with the brake light switch on the pedal. I had this problem with my F-250, thought I needed a new switch, when all that it really needed was a little adjustment.

Also, check the wires within several inches of the connector. They tend to break inside the insulation.
