    When Turning on the engine the brake light turns ON and turning off the
    engine , still the brake light is on at full glow.
    For the time being I have disconnected the battery terminals

    WHAT CAR IS THIS?

    Is it a Honda? What year? What model?

    And what "brake light"? The ones at the back of the car? The one on the
    dashboard?

    C'mon, help us help you.

    Look under the dashboard at the top of the brake pedal arm. The plastic
    button has fallen off (or split) which contacts the brake light switch.

    Thanks Very much,
    It was the splitted plastic switch
    under the dash board. Can it be replaced manually or needs to be
    replaced by trained mechanic.I am novice inCar knowledge. If It can be
    self replaced from where i can get the part.

    Get a new one from the Honda dealer. The part is cheap.

    You can install it youself.
