Default First F150, Couple Problems

GREETINGS ALL ! From the fantastic City of Toronto... My name is Victor an i just got my first F150, 2007 XLT, 262km, I LOVE this truck... Couple Problems though..
The brake light was on, changed front Pads an Back rotor an pads, Checked MC and lines an all is well BUT Lights stays ON. Mechanic Don't know Why.

Truck came with spare tire on, NO original wheel,so light is on.

Stereo not working, Can't see how to remove it...

Mountains of Blessing to all who can Help.............. Vic.

My guess on the brake light is the parking brake maybe be stuck on or the line broken. The radio is an easy one to remove, just pull the dash surrounding it toward you, it just clips on, and unscrew the radio 7mm bolts. The spare doesn't have a tpms sensor so it will show that light, look in the classifieds on here or craigslist in your area for a wheel or a new set some are pretty cheap.

Hey Guys....... We checked the Parking Brake lines all the way to the wheels, Its fine, Opens and closes well, I Then pushed the brake down and press the On-Off button all the way in...Yet the Brake light is still on! Can it be the on-Off switch ?

Hey Torontocity, I'm from the superior city of Vancouver! Step down from your center of the universe pedestal. hahaha

The E-brake light being stuck on is pretty common. See this thread https://www.f150forum.com/f4/brake-light-274537/

If that doesn't work, it could be a faulty switch.

And I'm from the even more superior city of Chilliwack.

Time for an aftermarket audio system I think

Also, I have the original stereo from my truck if you think you just need a replacement because the stereo died. I can ship it to you. unless you want to upgrade to an aftermarket stereo. I would check all fuses first to make sure that isn't the pronlem
