Theres actually a little plastic insert on your brake pedal, that contacts the brake light switch when the pedal is in its normal depressed position. Check that. ;)

i know this is old but do you know where to get one of those plastic inserts you talk abou??
 
You can try the dealer or just use a bolt, washers, and a lock nut. Just measure up the distance it should be from the mount to the brake pedal switch.

actually has an FB6 now.
i had a similar problem, but it was the opposite. my brake lights never went on.

fixed it by changing the brake switch. on a DB/DC, it's above the brake pedal. i assume a DA is similar?

I had this problem in my car, it's the plastic thingy majiggy that bumps the brake light switch, just use a 10mm nut and bolt
