brake light problem
 

I have a 1998 XJ.The problem goes like this,step on the brake and all parking lights come on.Turn on parking lights and u get power to the brake lights.I unpluged the rear harness,the brakelight switch and same thing.Also took out trailer plug.Where else does brake~tail come in contact.

The cancel cam (blinker switch) inside the column. Sounds like short to power. I'd suspect the headlight switch before the cancel cam.

This is my exact problem right now.. anyone actually have this problem and fix it recently??

from whit i see it goes like this
1. power distribution center to 2. stop lamp switchto 3. rear light.
also check fuse #23 it is a 10 amp fuse in the junction block aslo check all conections that plug into it.
Also forgot there is a #7 fuse that leads back that way is also a 10 amp
