  • Howdy folks,
    The other day, I walked out to my sequoia to find the battery totally dead. Once I jumped it, I noticed the brake lights were not turning off with the key out of the ignition. I noticed those green bits under the steering wheel and sure enough, it just needed that little plastic clip and VUALA! FIXED! Just thought I would share this with you fellow 1ste gen Toyota Sequoia owners! Below you will find the little plastic piece that will work on all 2001-2007 Sequoias and it comes in a pack of 10 so youre good if the replacement ever fails! Cheers all!

    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....

    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. 😘

    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!

    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.

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!

    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.

  • @MorpheousGandhi76

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.
