electrical problem!!! need help asap!

Post by DIMITRIS CORSA B »

i have a 1.2 8v and when i step on the brake pedal, the interior light of the gauge , the front low beam lights are turning on! also if i keep stepping at the brake pedal and turn the engine off with the key the engine doesn't untill i leave my foot from the pedal! at night time when i am turning on the front lights, the brake lights are also staying on untill i switch the fronts off! anyone who could help me solve this by my own?

i know of a similar problem on ford focus, if one of the rear bulbs that is fitted is the wrong one (single filament instead of twin) the side lights ect come on when braking, so you could check that, shoulc be the brake light and rear sidelight bulb
