Brake Lights Playing Up

[marsy 0]

Hi Guys,

When my foots on the brake pedal, my brake lights lately have decided to come on when they please. (both sides are either on as they should be, or not on at all).

I noticed last night as i was checking everything for the MOT the next day (Today).

So just now i get the news its failed for n/s and o/s brake lights not working and o/s rear brake pad needs changing.

 

Has anyone had this problem? Can anyone point me in the right direction of were to start looking. Thanks
