Front parking lites come on when I hit the brake?

Im guessing its a ground problem somewhere. Any ideas where to start looking?...

The problem is most likely in your hazards switch. Try "working" it a little and see what happens. If you can't get it to quit, you might have to replace the turn signal switch, as the hazard switch is part of it.

Another thing to look at, in the same area as Jeff mentioned, see if the button is pushed in, and the flasher missing.... that is a common reason for this.

You guys hit it right on. The hazard button wasnt all the way in. Thanks a million...

Rep points for both of you!
