    THANK YOU SO MUCH! Not only did I fix my brake lights problem but also figured out why I couldn't use my cruise control.

    Small tip I want to mention: in order to fit a long bolt in the hole, it was nearly impossible with engine off because the pedal is hard to press. Cranked and running, brake pedal moves more easily out of the way. Pop the bolt right in and release pedal, tighten nut on bolt.

    I haven't fixed it yet, but I sure enough found all of those little broken bits and what looked like a plastic button right under the brake pedal. I have at least a good idea of how to fix it from your video and from some helpful comments here. Your diagrams are very helpful as well, so thank you very much! 🙏🙏🙏

      Just wanted to add that I ordered the aftermarket part (from Am*zon 2 for $4) because I couldn't find a bolt or fender clip that would work.
      On my 03 Nissan Xterra, there are two holes right next to each other. The left one (and consequently the easier one to get to) is for the cruise control stopper, the right hole is for the brake light.(I initially popped a stopper into the hole that goes to the cruise control switch pin and wondered why the brake lights were still on).
      When I found the right hole, I tried about 10 times to get that little squirrelly thing in the hole and it kept falling because there's a metal plate in the way that makes it incredibly awkward to get to and you have to do this mostly "by feel."
      Finally what worked: with the car running and pressing the brake as far down as I could, instead of trying to pop the stopper in the hole, I pressed the stopper against the switch pin (centering it as best I could, pushing the switch pin in a bit) and gently released the brake until I felt with my fingers that the stopper was wedged, then pulled up on the brake to pop it in. 👍

    Exact same issue on my 2015 Ford F-250 SuperDuty. My cruise control would no longer set and I noticed my brake lights are staying on. I unplugged my brake sensor and they turned off so I thought the sensor was bad and ordered a new sensor. After this video and several others, I was led to go look for some yellowish pieces on the floor. Sure as shit, there was! So I used a similar sized magnet to replace the yellow spacer piece that you can't order. It worked!
