Brakelight problem

I was at the garage my friend owns (Colket Technical Services in Lansdale on rte 63) and we are getting ready to put in the wideband setup in my TC so I can tune this SOB. First we are going to practice using the wideband to setup a Paxton SC Blow thru carb setup on a 68 camaro, before we tackle the 2.3.

Thats beside the point, the problem is when Tom (mechanic who works there) took the TC for a ride I noticed when he got out the brake lights were still on? So I kicked the brake pedal and they went off. Later when I filled the tank up on the TC I noticed the lights stayed on again. So I bought a new stoplight switch, put it in and now I only have the drivers side stoplights working? All the other lights work on the passenger side, turn signals, running lights just not the stoplights. Now my friend who owns CTS said he would fix it, but I would just like to know if anyone has ever had this happen and know what might be the cause?

You know its always something isnt it?

Multifunction switch (turn signal switch). The four way flasher should also fail on the passenger side.

That would explain the intermittant problem. Cause it is working now, all by itself.
