    brake lights wont turn off

    I changed the clutch master and slave cylinders and now the brake lights and fogs wont turn off. I've checked the fuses and they all appear to be good. I replaced the switch with one from a junk yard and it didn't help. I took the wires from the plug and touched them together and the lights still stayed on.

    I also installed rear fogs. They draw power from the aux fuse box, run to the euro switch, then to a relay in the trunk. From the relay power runs to the fogs. Power is also taken from the brake light circuit using a one way diode thing so the fogs come on when you hit the breaks.

    Where do i go from here to make them work properly again?

        turns out the bracket was bent away form the pedal so the switch wasn't pushed down enough.
