Third Brake Light Will Not Turn OFF The red light on the back cab wont go out, after I exit the truck. First, the red light on the back of your cab is the third brake light. Are your rear brake lights also staying on ? If so, it sounds like your brake pedal switch is either not working or is out of adjustment. If there is no adjustment on the switch itself then your brake pedal return spring is broken / missing and not pulling your brake pedal far enough to engage the switch and turn off your brake lights. A quick test of this is to pull up on your brake pedal while you have someone watching your brake lights. If they turn off when you pull up on the pedal then you need to fix the spring issue.

1998 Nissan frontier 4x4 How do Iturn off my check engine,ABS,air bag light on 1998 nissan frontier 4x4? Well since the lights are controlled by the OBD (on board diagnostics), you'll have to reset it. You may be able to do this by simply disconnecting the battery for a few hours. However, a lot of newer vehicles have electronically locked radios which require the manual to be able to be re-enabled. I'd check out the radio before disconnecting the battery.  The only other ways are to physically disconnect the lights in the dash or get someone with an OBD reader to clear the codes. This will help. Thanks.
