Fantastic video. Suddenly I saw the break lights on at Walmart, I thought a faulty brake switch until I checked the brake pedal and saw an empty slot and a green plastic piece fell on the floor. Problem solved. Thank you very much.
I actually searched for where I can find my break light fuse, to turn off the light, instead I found this. This is the real, unerline issue I had. Thank you bro!
This was so helpful. I fixed the problem. Here is another tip for those with the same problem - get a 'flip flop' and cut of the stopper from the underside. This stopper is exactly the right size. Strangely enough, I had cut one off only yesterday, so I took it to the car and it fit. So if you don't have the part, use that bit from the flip flop until you can get to a garage. 😘
I did replace with the rubber piece, but after about 2 years it wore down and the brake light kept coming on again. Then I replaced with the hard plastic piece ( similar to original) I think Auto Zone sells the kit with both rubber and hard plastic.. - may have to shave the hard plastic a bit like me to make it fit. That was 4 months ago, still working. I did this with the engine off and it was very difficult to do. So turn the car on as this video tells.
Omg! Thank you so much! I checked and that broken piece was all on the mat. Mechanics are close so I just put a part of the piece in position so the battery's car doesnt die. Thank you. Pura vida 🇨🇷
Thanks for the accurate and to the point description of the problem. Yesterday my brake lights on my 02 Sequoia would not turn off. So I spent a little time on the Internet trying to find the issue. And I only spent a little time because of your video. After watching it I walked back out to my car and there were the little green pieces on the floor mat. Problem solved. Thanks again for your time.
Just watched your video, as my 2004 Tundra brake light were staying on. After watching your video, went back to the truck and found those little green plastic pieces on the floor board. Now that I know how to fix, it will be easy peasy.
My Toyota t100 had the same issue and I been driving around trying to get a bump to get my lights working and I decided to go to TH-cam and first video I came across and I went and saw my mat with some small tab that broke
Sheeesh, thank you for the info. My rear lights were stuck on today and I looked down on the car mat and there was my issue. The piece broke off, easy fix. I’m glad we got TH-camrs like you. 🙏
my dad came home today with the same problem. went on youtube and stumbled upon your video. saw pieces of broken plastic on the carpet under the brake. we put something in between for the meantime to turn the light off till we get that button type thing. thank you so much for this video
Thank you so much.. I have a 2002 honda crv and it did the same thing. Checked out your vid and it was that. I saw plastic parts on my floor mat. I put a piece of cardboard with tape until I stop by autozone to pick up the part.
I have a 2003 Sequoia and this had me very worried. I went out and found the green parts all on the mat! Thank you! Kept jumping the car. I wish you could tell us the name of the part?
I also searched for fuse to shut off my brake lights and found this video and sure enough I found the broken plastic grommet. Thank you for posting this great trouble shooting video.
Thank you!!! You are one of the few who actually showed both where the part goes AND how it gets installed. It might seem super obvious to most people, but I fix a lot of different stuff on my 2000 Corolla and it still wasn’t entirely clear what I needed to do to get the bumper in the right spot. I appreciate this video so much!
Same situation here...I was headed to work, came out to start up truck, and had no power... ok I thought, get my battery pack charger and charge my battery. Didnt notice my brake lights were on until it became dark outside... Then I scratced my hea s puzzled to what waa was going on. Checked fuses like one would do first, all checked out... Searched out youtube and saw your video... I laughed so hard when you mentioned the little green plastic pieces... Thats exaclty what I saw on my floor board the afternoon before.... I thought it was something I stepped in and didnt think twice about it..... I piked up the pieces and threw them away.... Now I know.... I feel excited now.... Thanks for your video Sir....
Very helpful, thanks so much. Found the broken gromet, found a replacement @ a local auto parts store, and after 10 min of angling under the steering wheel, I was able to push in the gromet! This saves me so much time and worrying about my battery before I could get to a mechanic. 🎉🎉🎉
This just happened to me today in my 2003 tundra sr5 found the green plastic and everything thanks alot thought I was dealing with some electrical problem
My man I thought it had something to do with the break peddle and checked that before your video but didn't realize it needed that plastic there and what do you know I found that plastic your talking about! Thank you so much your the fucking man!
@@lilneki6910 lol my husband thought I was leaving and walked up to the window and saw no one and freaked out 😮😂 he called me saying I think we have a transformer lol 😂
Thank you so much this was also the problem with my car but instead of the rubber falling off , the little switch has dug a hole thru the rubber making it not press down!
my brother in law turned me on to the little clear stick things you put on cabinet doors so they don’t slam! same thickness as the broken plastic thingy.. clean the metal bracket and stick it on.. perfect! If it doesn’t stay for ever.. keep the rest in the glove box!
2001' Toyota Sequoia: Thanks for a very clear and short video of the problem with solution. I bought the piece from O'rileys for &10 and installed it in 10 minutes.
Very helpful. I would have never thought to look there. I didn’t even notice there were pieces on the floor of my car until after watching your video. Thank You.
This was so helpful! Brake lights on, looked for green parts--they were THERE! 2004 Tundra, 220k miles. Actually called local dealer, picked up part for $5 and my husband got it installed with a little help from me and your video. Thank you!
This just happened to me 2 days ago with my toyota echo. I replaced the battery thinking it was that. A co worker told me what this video explained at work last night and it made sense. Thanks
Man i’ve had a problem with my Nissan 350z, I replaced the switch and the rubber thingy, and it still happens, but the thing is that it just happens when i turn the lights on, if im driving at night and im lights off, my break works fine, if i turn my headlights or inside dashboard lights, the break light will stay on always!
It was about 11:30 at night on Saturday when my son saw his brake lights staying on. Your video gave me the temp fix needed until I could get the part or find a substitute. Thank you so much from a mom who is not a mechanic!
What is the part called? I just had this issue with my Toyota Tercel. I put a penny in place for the night so the lights went off. Now I’d like to order that part off Amazon but I don’t know what it’s called.
I’ve yet to go out cause it’s raining. But my 2014 Kia Sorento has brakes staying on. I herd it could be brake switch. OR the brake light I replaced about 3 weeks ago the inside of those burn out badly and short out having brake lights come on and stay. Also having the traction control car show up on the dash. On the way home from work it wasn’t on. BUT early morning going to work it is. So, tells me it’s NOT brake switch.
Thanks for your assist! And I appreciated that you dropped the damn thing before you got it installed because, with my husband depressing the brake and me trying to push the button out of the way? The struggle was real. #truthinadvertising A few words might have been said before I finally got it seated under the switch so that it mounted. Whew! Car yoga accomplished!
Thank you for this post. We used a Mexican quarter for a temporary fix until we get replacement in, but exactly what you said the green pieces where on the floor
wow man. Can't believe I found this video. Thank you! Its called a Brake Pedal Stop Pad. Thank you
Cracked me up when I looked at the floorboard and see the broken pieces of green plastic. Thank you so much.

So many weird little quirks with these trucks, I had never heard of this one.
The Sequoia community is the best thanks for sharing!
Saw the broken pieces on my floorboard this morning and thought it was broken candy , wow very helpful headed out to purchase the piece!
I did replace with the rubber piece, but after about 2 years it wore down and the brake light kept coming on again.

Bro. You made my day. I wish I could venmo you some $$ and buy you lunch. Thank you!
Great video. Just an fyi depending on your car the piece could be a clear rubber, my Acura TLX was.
I couldn't figure it out. I watched the video and looked on my floorboard and seen 2 black plastic broken pieces laying under the brake pedal.
Thanks you and yes my issue ... easy fix except im in the philippines so had to make the part myself ... easy job though
Thanks. I fix my car after two days unplugging the battery every time i use it

You are right! I was wondering what those little green plastics were. 😂
Anyone ever have an issue of a clunk noise from the shifter area after replacing the stopper?
What if after you replace the plastic piece, the problem continues ?
5⭐️ video! Excellent information. Went to local auto parts store and installed in less than 2 minutes.

Yes, yes, yes-green pieces on my Tundra floor mat.....great video, short, to the point, and of course, accurate dx of the problem..thank you🛻
What did you look up on Amazon to get that piece
2001' Toyota Sequoia: Thanks for a very clear and short video of the problem with solution. I bought the piece from O'rileys for &10 and installed it in 10 minutes.
Very helpful. I would have never thought to look there. I didn’t even notice there were pieces on the floor of my car until after watching your video. Thank You.
What's the correct name for that little part? I'm trying to buy one.
It's the blinker fluid that's losing it's viscosity
😂😂😂
Saved me a heart attack... great vid
HI, you video is short but very informative in how to put that little piece, appreciated for your video
Thank you!!! you hit it right on the target. i was wondering where the green pieces came from and you explained it!
This was so helpful! Brake lights on, looked for green parts--they were THERE! 2004 Tundra, 220k miles. Actually called local dealer, picked up part for $5 and my husband got it installed with a little help from me and your video. Thank you!
This is a common problem on Hondas and Toyotas
Would this sensor not allow the car to pick up speed?
Very useful. Thank you....
Wooow awesome, thank you!
What is it called so I can order it ? 😊
Save my night ❤
I can’t believe that this was actually the issue for my Santa Fe lol. I found the broken piece on my floor mat after watching this
Just happened to me!
Earned a sub👍👍👍
This just happened to me 2 days ago with my toyota echo. I replaced the battery thinking it was that. A co worker told me what this video explained at work last night and it made sense. Thanks
What’s the piece called
i'd also would love to know, to get one from the local shop.
I will also like to know what the part is called

Back lights will not shut off after replacing Brake cushion Stopper for 2002 Toyota Sienna. Does something need to be reset?
It was about 11:30 at night on Saturday when my son saw his brake lights staying on. Your video gave me the temp fix needed until I could get the part or find a substitute. Thank you so much from a mom who is not a mechanic!
Thank you. This is exactly the problem I have. The rubber plate is black on my car 2000 Corolla.
Hey man all I’m going to say is thank you your saving a lot of money for people 🙏 god bless you
Thannkkkk youuuu.. it worked. Not sure why it also may have corrected an acceleration problem.
What is the part called? I just had this issue with my Toyota Tercel. I put a penny in place for the night so the lights went off. Now I’d like to order that part off Amazon but I don’t know what it’s called.

Thanks for the help. We had the same issue, placed a small bolt, washer and nut. It solved the issue without purchasing a new spare part.
Much love 🎉
When seen that in the floor bord I thought someone been eating candy in my car and it was green lol but now I know what it was thanks for the info
Thank you
Thanks for your assist! And I appreciated that you dropped the damn thing before you got it installed because, with my husband depressing the brake and me trying to push the button out of the way?

I suggest not to buy the plastic replacement will break again overtime. I put a screw long and tick enough to get in there and will be permanently.
Thank you for this video! I am not at all a car person but i followed your video and it worked! 🙌🏻
Thanks Bro!!
Life saver
Amazing , thankyou for helping fix the problem 🎉
