I have a 2003 Jetta TDI. Few days ago the check engine light came on. Yesterday my wife called me and said the brake lights were staying on even after she turned the car off.
When I got home they sure enough stayed on. I pumped the brakes, turned the headlights on and off, start and restart, all to no avail. I then disconnected the battery and then reconnected. Brake lights are now off. I started the car and pressed the brake. Brake lights stay on. I disconnected the battery again and this time just left the car alone and after about 5-10 minutes the brake lights were on again.
So, I tried taking out the fuse for the brake lights. They again stayed off for awhile then came back on.
What is going on? Anyone have any ideas? Or things to try?
