    Sounds like a flex problem with your pedals is allowing the brake switch to open. ;)

    Could be a flex problem or a lube problem... rusted common shaft dragging the brake pedal along...

    Yeah, I had a similar problem. My brake lights wouldn't actually come on but the brake pedal would move a little bit. I think they share a common pivot point and are side by side. Probably what's happening is that your clutch pedal is just pressing your brake pedal a little...enough for your brake to activate the light.
