I have a 1985 Porsche 911 Targa(not a turbo). The brake lights only come on when the brake pedal is pressed all the way to the floor, so you have to be pretty much stopped for the lights to come on. I have heard that there is a switch under the pedal(I think) that controls the lights. Anybody know anything? Can I adjust the pedal? Do I need to buy a new part? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.|||i got a 944 and the brakes light switch is about the same ,you can adjust the switch on it to work right unless its bad,you need the lights to come on just as you press the pedal,anything over a 1/4 inch they should come on,and that is adjustable,you need a good manual on that car,it makes repairs a little easier,to do,the Haynes manuals are laid out pretty good on the Porsche,s good luck with it.|||your welcome.

|||Answer is incorrect.
There are two brake lights switches. They are pressure activated switches that screw into the brake master cylinder located in the front trunk (under the windshield on the drivers side). They are not adjustable. You should replace both switches at the same time.

|||if the light goes on went you apply the pedal means one or two thing your car is losing brake fluid check all the lines to all
to all the wheel look for brake fluid .if you don't see any than
most likely the master cylinder is bad .that is what cause\ing the light to come on .you can go to azone and see if they have a brake power bleeder . it hooks to the master top and
press-rise the system look for leaks
