Ok from what I have found out this is the brake light ..any ideas why the brake lights would be staying on?
.Just read on another thread it could be the brake light switch running into the master cylinder?
Will have a proper look tomorrow..is the master cylinder in the engine bay?

No it is above the pedals accessed by removing the instrument binnacle, there can be one or two switches.
