Press brakes, parking lights come on
The subject says it all...when I press the brake pedal, the parking lights come on (and the dashboard lights come on too - exactly the same as if I had turned the switch). Any ideas what might be causing this?

actually sounds like someone put a single filament bulb in a brake light socket... should be 3496 or 1157 for turn and brake lights.
