[FWDLK] Brake light Switch question: 59 Dodge

[James <sartana@xxxxxxx>]

Well, went out to start the Dodge and the battery was dead. Though initially puzzled, I recalled a event that happened a week or so ago. I parked the car outside and as I was walking back to the house, the brake lights came on. I went into the car, fiddled with the brake pedal and they went off. Today, as soon I hooked the battery charger up, I went back and sure enough, my brake lights were on again. I fiddled with the pedal and off they went.

 

So...my brake light switch was replaced with a new NOS one about a year ago. Should this be the prime suspect in my situation? This is a new problem. Has not previously occurred in the 2+ years I have had the car. Thanks for any thoughts.
