Default where's the fuse for the brake lights on a toyota corola?

i think the fuse for the brake lights burned out and i need to know where they are and wich one it is. also, its stuck on park and it wont let me shift into drive. Is that because of the brake lights that are out or is it something else? its a toyota corola 1993.

I think that fuse is in the engine compartment box. Look for a black plastic box w/ wires to it. You spring a little catch and the box cover will lift off. turn over the box cover and i think it will have the fuses identified.















Yes - w/no brake light power you will not be able to shift out of Park - because of the interlock. The shifter has to see that the foot brake is on before it will release the shift lever.















you also might need to check your brake switch on the pedal if the fuse is not the problem. you could have a bad bulb shorting the fuse - so if you replace the fuse and it blows again - check all the brake bulbs including the one in the hi mount.
