Replace your brake light switch.

you either have a problem with the steering angle sensor, problem with the wiring to the latitudinal longitudinal acceleration( possibly moisture in the plug) or the sensor is just bad, i have replaced a few, in older ones, i believe that the sensor is under the back seat, then there are a few relearn procedures that you will have to do. you will need a scan too for this. do you know anyone with a scan tool?
