Brian,

More than likely it is your brake light pressure switch has gone bad. Depending on the day of the week can determine the exact hiding place that you will find it but it should be around the steering box.

If air system is down, you do not need brake lights, as the PARKING BRAKE, which is spring applied/air released will prevent you from moving at all.

Of course, before that, your low air alarms would make it difficult for anyone to concentrate anyway-- that is its job!

The brake light switch takes air pressure to operate.
