Brake Lamp Displaying constantly on Gen4 Prelude (1992)

[[ IV 23 VI ]]

Hey All,

My friend has this stupid light showing constantly on my 1992 Gen4 Prelude,

I dont know how to get rid of it... :p

I did a search and only found a result for a older model prelude, but it didnt help.

Anyone know how to fix this??

Cheers. :thumbsup:

Brake light switch is broken. Replacement from Honda are around $15.

it would vary.

could be a brake light out, could be fault switch, could be low brake fluid or any other numerous things.

Your best bet is do download a manual and work through the troubleshooting process in there rather than buy and replace things, thats the expensive way and might not address the real issue.

have you installed LED taillights?

I had this problem with my 3rd gen recently. I noticed broken plastic on the floor mat. The "cushion" that fits between the pedal and the switch was broken, leaving a space and the brake switch open. Just look up at where the pedal meets the switch and I reckon you'll spot the problem. I replaced mine with a rubber grommet (giant thumb tack looking) type thing I had hanging around.

If she has LED's the brake light is continuously thought by your car to be broken.
