    my daughter has a 1991 civic and the brake lites stay on all the time. i
    figure a brake lite switch. can anyone tell me the color codes and
    purposes of the wiring going to/from the brake lite switch? or a wiring
    diagram would be great.

    thanx

    Check that the switch (or its rubber bumper) isn't dislodged first. It
    takes only a very tiny pedal movement to make the brake lights come on.
