Anyway to deactivate the brake lamp warning on dash

or will pulling the fuse cause the brake lamps to stop working as well?

Got my depo led tail lights installed and the listing mentions even with proper installation the brake lamp light will remain on. I know all my lights work fine.

So, any way to disable the actual light on the dash or am I forced to live with it?

Thanks!

take apart the dash and desolder the actual light


or just rip it off if you don't have a soldering iron

Or why not just pull the light bulb out so as not to damage the cluster? At least that's what I did on my old car..

If that is the case, then maybe cover the bulb with black eletrical tape or on the underside if the cluster... i would discourage the op from desoldering it unless he has a steady hands... last thing you want is to burn/melt something ..
