Unplug the dome light delay if you suspect that. Also don't cut the wires on the door switch - unplug them.

Get under the dash and look at the shaft on your brake pedal. There should be a rubber "plug" that will activate the brake light switch. If it's gone, the switch peg goes through the hole where the rubber plug is supposed to be, and your brake lights stay on.

Simple fix: Get a nut and bolt that fits the hole, and play around with the length until the switch works. Tighten it down good and never worry about it again.
