    you hit the brake petal , they come on when you have the headlights
    on. how can this be fixed

    replace light bulbs and or check the fuse that controls them.

    Not knowing the history - did you get the car like this, did it happen after
    it was worked on, or did it happen out of the blue - I'd hazard a guess
    either the wrong bulbs are in the taillights (single filament instead of
    dual filament) or the ground on the taillight sockets is bad.

    Yeah, but bonus points for spelling "brake" correctly!

    Yeah, spell it right.

    It's the "break petal".

    As in "putt the petal to the medal." Now I forgot what was wrong with the
    break lites in the first place.

    If all the brake lights are out, I would suspect the switch at the brake
    pedal.
