Ok... so here's the 10 second rundown:

Brakes fail
told master cylinder needs replacement.... replaced it
brakes still fail
toldcalipers are leaking... only one of them was and i replaced it (i know i should do it in pairs but financially just cant.)
brakes still failed
bled master cylinder because i wasn't aware of having to when I installed it...
brakes work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks disco mike!


now.... my brake lights won't turn off...... as in if the truck is on, wether my headlights are turned on or not, all three (rear top, rear right, rear left) brake lights are illuminated.

in trying to diagnose my issue, I removed my brake booster (servo unit).. would this have an impact on my lights? Maybe i didn't put it back on correctly. I'd appreciate any insight. I don't log on here too much so if you can just email me at triciafitch @ gmail . com (no spaces, all together) or call/text me at 520 - 401 - 2411

Thanks in advance!
