Your adjustment for the brake lights behind the pedal may be the problem,
Richard.  Pull the brake pedal BACK and see if the light goes out.

Subject: [Chrysler300] Brake Light Issues

Good afternoon,

I drove the G up to my parents for dinner last night. One of the neighbors
came over to tell me that the taillights were on. The light switch was not
on, pressing the brake pedal produced no changes in the illumination. When
pulling the light switch on, it did make the lights come on brighter. Still
no brake lights when depressing the brake pedal.

I then lightly tweaked the wires on the brake switch which hangs beneath the
master cylinder. This made the taillights go out, but still no brake lights.
The lights do illuminate when the switch is pulled on. I continued to work
with the 2 wires on the switch at the master cylinder, with no success. 

These wires have been messed with prior to my ownership and there may be a
disconnect somewhere. I will check this. It doesn't, however, make sense to
me that the lights remain on before my tweaking. 

Any ideas? I have driven the car well over 2,000 miles this summer, and this
is the first time this has happened. I have a very dark garage that I back
the car into, if it had happened before, I would have seen it.

Thanks,

Richard Osborne
