    Brake Light Failure

    I have a 2006 9-5. My left brake light didn't work and I had the brake light failure warning light on. I replaced the bulb and now all 3 brake lights are permanently on when the car is turned on. I replaced both brake light bulbs and both tail light bulbs as they are part of the same assembly. The brake lights are still permanently on while the car is turned on. Has anyone experienced this? Any advice? Thank you.

    It could be the trunk light wiring if you have a sedan: http://saabworld.net/f29/sedan-boot-...aab-9-5-a-164/

    You need the correct bulb and it must be installed properly. If you are 100% certain of this check them again

    HOWEVER - you say "All Three Brake Lights Are On" - meaning left and right plus the 3rd high mount? If yes - then check your brake pedal switch @ the pedal. They go bad or come out of adjustment (they are adjustable).
