1996 Ford Explorer Other - Chassis, Suspension & Steering


Question: My brake light stays on. It is located on my dashboard. When I apply my brakes it goes out. When I left off of my brakes, it comes back on. Also, sometimes when I put my Explorer in reverse, it feels like it is isn't in gear. I have to put it back in park then back to reverse to get it to move.
